Announcing Rust 1.87.0 and ten years of Rust!

Never realized rust was 10 years old now. Happy birthday, may the next decade be more blazing fast 🎉

Wow, 10 years is still pretty young! Most of the other consolidated languages are at least 30 years old. Will be interesting to see how this project evolves.

Damn, those pipes look useful. Can use them to send stdout from one command to the stdin of another, as you'd expect. But you can also easily send stuff to stdin from Rust code (and of course, easily read from stdout and stderr, too): https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/io/fn.pipe.html#examples

The anonymous pipes are neat. I am building a project (need to go back to it) which runs an external application. I remember getting stdout and stderr was a bit complicated. These pipes could simplify things a lot.
