    I came across this article, this is a guy I know from some hacker events in Germany like CCC Congress etc
    This is a way for CPU's to handle low level programming with out having to translate to ASM etc... or so I think.

    Introduction to SIMD programming in pure Rust

    Thank you for this article, it is very useful as every article Silvain writes.

    [...]

    To access these CPU features in other languages like C you may need to write assembly and as usual rust saves you from that.

    The mid-level C programmer just finds a suitable library.
    Rust's approach on the other hand is a nice example of a
    monolithic architecture and the feature bloat, which are
    rather the typical outcome of the most common incompetence.
