→Unsafe: adding another ref for doubly linked lists, this one says impossible. (FWIW the most famous is the learning Rust one which does show that it's possible, but only by adding dynamic overheads and leaking some of the implementation details in the interface. Don't think we can get into that in the article though without adding TMI and OR.)

Line 670:
[[Discord]], an [[instant messaging]] software company, rewrote parts of its system in Rust for increased performance in 2020. In the same year, Dropbox announced that its [[file synchronization]] had been rewritten in Rust.
