Imagine being such a niche language that a single job posting makes headlines. In another 10.000 maybe I'll be able to get a Rust job too.

It's less the job post, more the implication, that they consider Rust to be better than (their internally developed) C# for one of their major products. And that I think is worth news (as it could further drive towards adoption of Rust in general).

Yeah, this is pretty funny from that perspective.

the news isn't that there's one job listing, the news is that Microsoft office 365 is being rewritten in rust.
