Really intrigued by Amanieu’s MIR pass for move elimination. I only wish I had something intelligent to say about it!

Very exciting to here about polonius, and also i heard the never type is getting stabilized soon! Amazing

Yeah 1.100 is going to be a big one (https://releases.rs/docs/1.100.0/). Both the never type and Allocator are in there

I feel like it couldn’t possibly be an intentional thing, but it’s amusing how 100 is a big release.

it’s intentional-ish, AFAIR both never type and allocator API threads mentioned that it would be cool to stabilize it in time for 1.100 release window. I think it if wasn’t a pretty number, they could plausibly be stabilized in separate releases
