Hmm wasn’t there some kerfuffle recently about how the kernel was going to start self-issuing CVEs en masse? Is this the result of that plan?

If you can write correct C++ you’ll be able to write Rust code that compiles first time. Don’t stress, you’re learning the good stuff.

Nothing in tech stands still. If you want a glimpse of a possible alternative future check out Pijul. And I don’t know an example off-hand but the idea of doing version control on ASTs of program code rather than flat text is an interesting concept that hasn’t taken off yet.

I’d rather go to the local library and ask the clerk for a search term

Sounds kind of relaxing tbh
