Understand it, then run it
The RFC document *0344‑conventions‑galore.md* used to link to a page that no longer exists. The change updates that link to point to an archived copy on archive.org, so readers can still access the content.
Run it now
// This program demonstrates that the RFC link now points to an archived copy.
// Since the change is only in documentation, we simply print the updated URL.
fn main() {
let archived_url = "https://web.archive.org/web/20260802000000/https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0344-conventions-galore.md";
println!("RFC 0344 link now points to: {}", archived_url);
}
What it printed when we ran it on Rust 1.98.1 (edition 2024)
RFC 0344 link now points to: https://web.archive.org/web/20260802000000/https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0344-conventions-galore.md
Run sends this program (for Solidity, the contract and its tests) to our own sandbox, where it is compiled and run once, with no network, and what it printed or the test report comes back here. Nothing is kept. Runs are counted per visitor for the day so everyone gets a turn; the details are on the legal page.
