• Learn how and why companies are using Rust in production.
• Learn some cool stuff about Rust.
• Hear some thoughts on "What does it mean to be 'production-ready' anyway?"

In this talk, Steve will address these questions about Rust, muse over the nature of "what does production-ready even mean", and show off some of Rust's strengths.
