TIL of the STF. Cool idea.

I love that differences with gnu are bugs. I know it will lead to slower, less maintainable code, but it makes adoption worlds easier

Great news. Maybe in a year they will pass enough of the rest suite to be taken seriously.

I am not sure what I am excited for, Rust or the MIT license.
