Sooo much inane naysaying in that Rust for Filesystems article. I'm glad there are people with the stamina to push through it.

Part of the problem, Ted Ts'o said, is that there is an effort to get "everyone to switch over to the religion" of Rust

I would say a bigger problem is that there are people that think Rust is some kind of religion with acolytes trying to convert people. Is it really that hard to distinguish genuine revolutions (iPhone, Rust, AI, reusable rockets, etc.) from hyped nonsense (Blockchain/web3, Metaverse, etc.)?

These things are very obvious IMO, especially if you actually try them!

It is funny that you list AI under genuine revolutions while I would list it (or at least 90% of it) under hyped nonsense.

It can be both
