Anyone have a link to the Android talk?
I wonder if it was backend code or on-device code. On device you could probably justify the compromises of a no-GC language better.
In the transcript I found more talk about porting C++ and Go to Rust, without Python rewrite references... still interesting tidbits, like
"when we've rewritten systems from go
into rust we've found that it takes
about the same size team about the same
amount of time to build it that is
there's no loss in productivity when
moving from go to rust "
