But Rust is a systems language, for which Rust is excellent. Among its peers, I find C++ blog posts even less coherent.

Despite recent trends to use Rust for everything, it’s not supposed to be used for CRUD apps. I think this blog post is really just a case study in “use the right tool for the job, not necessarily the language you enjoy in your spare time or the latest trend in programming”

It's funny also because this is basically what you read when you arrive on the landing page of rust: A language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

Crud are still software I think

Lol it's funny how often I get "but rust is not for making crud", although I never said I was using it for that.
