Unless something similar to but better than Rust comes along soon, I expect both Rust and C to live "forever".




Unfortunately, I really doubt long rust's "forever" will last in the wake of the `time` crate controversy. I can't see like a lot of good options in that place from the perspectives of the rust-std maintainers, but it might've just been worth it to wait for a new edition or similar.

Why do you believe that's going to have some sort of lasting effect on Rust?

I don't believe it'll have "lasting" effect on rust, but I think it rather shows what rust maintainers will do, if put into a similar situation again.
