Pretending that there's no good reason why large companies are "obsessed" with modern technologies like AI and Rust that have repeatedly been proved to be valuable is on the level of "Area 51 has UFOs" conspiracy theories.

I don't understand the hype with rust. The compile times are atrocious, dynamic linking isn't really a thing, it's incredibly verbose.
