I am a big fan of rust and think it's a natural fit for linux into the future. What isn't a natural fit is the npm tier dependency sprawl situation.
I really do think we need to listen to what distro maintainers are telling us, because they are the ones who understand how the rubber hits the road when it comes to maintaining and supporting software long term.

the msgpack serde implementation gets pretty close to what I'm after. only downside is that the keys have to be encoded as strings (see highlighted)

ideally I would like to write something like this with serde:
#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
struct Person {
#[key(1)]
name: String,
#[key(2)]
age: usize,
}

is there a binary serialisation format with json like data types where keys are explicitly a number for the wire?
don't say protobufs, i explicitly do not want protobufs

everybody wants to be the guy to write the filesystem that solves data loss once and for all because it would look good as hell on a resume
