THE UNEXPECTED PRODUCTIVITY BOOST OF RUST

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

At some point, codebases get too big for developers to keep all of the parts in their heads at the same time. Projects typically hit a significant slowdown at this stage. However, Rust's strong safety guarantees make it easier for developers to refactor even critical parts of apps, giving them more confidence and increasing their productivity. This allows developers to worry less and try out more things without worrying about breaking the existing stuff.
