| I am not sure I believe the numbers shown here. More jobs offered in Rust than C++? I would not think so. I think that many of the hits on 'rust' in the job postings are actually 'trust':
``` >>> import requests >>> page_id = 42919502 # Feb 2025 >>> url = f"https://hn.algolia.com/api/v1/items/{page_id}" >>> resp = requests.get(url, headers={'Accept': 'application/json'}) >>> data = resp.json() >>> sum('rust' in child['text'].lower() for child in data['children']) 42 >>> sum('trust' in child['text'].lower() for child in data['children']) 13 ``` Check out the gist here: https://gist.github.com/hughdbrown/f41f5f3c072067c2351460d8d... It shows that 30-40% of 'rust' is really 'trust':
``` -------------------- 2025-02-01: rust = 42 trust = 13 -------------------- 2025-01-01: rust = 28 trust = 10 -------------------- 2024-12-01: rust = 32 trust = 14 -------------------- 2024-11-01: rust = 28 trust = 8 -------------------- 2024-10-01: rust = 36 trust = 12 -------------------- 2024-09-01: rust = 32 trust = 9 -------------------- 2024-08-01: rust = 36 trust = 10 -------------------- 2024-07-01: rust = 33 trust = 11 -------------------- 2024-06-01: rust = 36 trust = 15 -------------------- 2024-05-01: rust = 42 trust = 14 -------------------- 2024-04-01: rust = 30 trust = 12 -------------------- 2024-03-01: rust = 32 trust = 12 -------------------- 2024-02-01: rust = 25 trust = 10 -------------------- 2024-01-01: rust = 22 trust = 8 ``` I have a python repo specifically for finding Rust action in Who Is Hiring: https://github.com/hughdbrown/who-is-hiring |
