Ladybird Browser adopts Rust, with help from AI (ladybird.org)

Lobsters.

We’ve been searching for a memory-safe programming language to replace C++ in Ladybird for a while now. We previously explored Swift, but the C++ interop never quite got there, and platform support outside the Apple ecosystem was limited. Rust is a different story. The ecosystem is far more mature for systems programming, and many of our contributors already know the language. Going forward, we are rewriting parts of Ladybird in Rust.

And the people complaining about "insufferable" critics of AI, and assuming all criticism is "knee-jerk", are themselves contributing to the cycle of negativity.

no shit, pick any post that mentions AI here and see who are the first ones to comment every single time.

If you don't want a "cycle of negativity", maybe let's not throw rocks at anything for just bringing up the topic?

how's acknowledging this herd behavior contributing to it. Some of us are also tired of reading the same crap in the comments.
