He also said in that same email regarding Rust that:
> nobody is forced to suddenly have to learn a new language, and that people who want to work purely on the C side can very much continue to do so.
So any argument that Rust would ever fully replace C in such a way that C would go away and be banned in the kernel is NOT what Linus said.
That’s a reasonable position today, but what about in 20 years?
Do you know what technology will look like in 5 years? Or even 1 year?
cuz if you do you're about to make a lot of money gambling on or shorting AI...
All I know is that RUST will lose skill issue and C will win
