Rust Foundation IS DOING WHAT????

Hey, Like and Subscribe. I didn't say it, so don't make me, do your part ass holes

Rust just went full Oracle. Never go full Oracle.

So they also implement ownership model on rust logo as well. Borrow checker: "you cannot borrow logo as mutable"

Thank you, Rust Foundation. I see people programming in C and C++ till 2083

We should create a fork and call it "Crust". The logo can be a piece of toast. It will be blazingly fast and memory safest. Only rule is, all packages must have the name crust in it.

Rust is so fast it even made the next year's april fools joke in advance

This feels like the foundation going to extreme lengths to solve problems I'm not confident existed in the first place.

This sounds like a fun challenge - make a website that violates as many of these guidelines as possible

It's sad to see this kind of behavior. I'm also expecting the Linux foundation to pull all commits and future plans of including Rust in the kernel as it could become a legal nightmare for them.

Community : "Let's make this language fun, easy and big!" The Foundation: "We don't do that here"

This is what happens when you hire trademark/IP lawyers who do not understand open source or software and who are not reigned in by the client at all.

The Rust Foundation not only just blew their trust with the Rust community at large, they also blew their chances with the Linux community as well. Linus won't let Rust touch the kernel now if there's any sniff of a possible future lawsuit. What a wasted opportunity :(

Ah yes, suddenly having an ISO committee doesn't seem as bad anymore.

What a great way to convince engineers to adopt your language.

The R Foundation's lawyers are gonna have a field day when they learn the Rust Foundation is infringing their trademark.

I hope The RS community will be as vocal as the Linux one. No way this passes along. Let's not forget there's always the big fork bomb.

I feel like this would be really hard to hold up in court. Also I don't understand how the foundation and core lang team remain this far out of touch with the community. It reminds me of the async-await debacle, where the core lang team had a very strong idea of how they wanted to do it, did some polling, it was not the most popular solution by far, and then they went ahead with it anyway. That's aside from the problems with Pin structures used to implement async that introduced a whole slew of memory safety bugs. *The language itself does so many things right, but jeez sometimes they really do some asinine stuff.

This smells like someone let a lawyer into the building

if you forked the r-word language, you could continue to merge changes from the r-word compiler into your own. It wouldn't be difficult to maintain, the r-word foundation can't stop you from continuously forking the compiler.

So a Rust User Group without a Code of Conduct is not allowed? I'm out of this kindergarden ...
