Working on scientific code, Rust is amazing.

We used to either code in C or Python. Now Python is only used for data analysis pre-post computation.

The code is as fast as in C, the compiler is great at helping us prototype without bugs, memory usage is lower.

We dropped C complelty and reducing our usage of Python.
