And yet, when you travel by train, plane, being monitored in an hospital, real time OS in factories, there is most likely Ada underneath. If Rust wants to become a real systems programing language, it needs OS vendor support, not HN cheering. |

I have worked for quite a few real-time safety-critical systems, including one of the domains you mentioned. I have ex-colleagues who now work for other such domains. I assure you, that Ada is rarely ever seen. It's just C all the way, and usually running without an OS. I used to see job openings for Ada programmers some 15-20 years ago, but I haven't seen anyone use it in any of the firms I worked at. The only thing that seems to be changing these days is a creeping in of Matlab/Simulink-generated C code.
