Best I can glean is that Microsoft trialled rust and it was partly successful so they're looking at writing their own rust-like language to fill in the gapshttps://www.zdnet.com/article/microsofts-rust-experiments-are-going-well-but-some-features-are-missing/ …

Thanks for this. I finally watched the knowledge transfer network talk linked in the original article, which was excellent, talking about language features and memory safety, and how that links to https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/security/ctsrd/cheri/ …, with a passing reference to Rust as doing similar things.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
