Can you please give an example of that? Rust is very much advertised as a systems programming language. Can't really blame people for using it and going "oh it's harder than go and python"...

From the website:

Are these "systems"? FWIW "systems" does not appear on the Rust home page.

From wikipedia:

> Rust is a multi-paradigm, general-purpose programming language that emphasizes performance, type safety, and concurrency.

>performance, type safety, and concurrency

So... a systems programming language? x)

If all software programs are _systems_, yes :)
