+Title: This Week in Rust 50

+Category: This Week in Rust
+
+Hello and welcome to another issue of *This Week in Rust*!
+[Rust](http://rust-lang.org) is a systems language pursuing the trifecta:
+safe, concurrent, and fast. This is a weekly summary of its progress and
+community. Want something mentioned? [Send me an
+email!](mailto:corey@octayn.net?subject=This%20Week%20in%20Rust%20Suggestion)
+Want to get involved? [We love
+contributions](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/wiki/Note-guide-for-new-contributors).

+66 pull requests were merged this week.
+
+## Breaking Changes
+
+- `mem::uninit` [has been renamed](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14392)
+  to `uninitialized`, and everything in `mem` is either stable or deprecated
+  (to be removed). There are a [bunch of other
+  changes](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14259) to `mem` that go with
+  this.
+- All uses of `~str` [have been
+  removed](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14310).
+- `UnsafeArc` [has been removed](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14301),
+  replaced with `Arc<Unsafe<T>>`.
+- `Rng.choose` [now returns an
+  `Option`](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14319).
+- `Bitv::init_to_vec` [has been
+  removed](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14295).
+- Test shards with the built-in test runner [are now indexed by
+  1](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14286) in the CLI.
+- `Result.unwrap_or_handle` [has been
+  renamed](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14294) to `unwrap_or_else` for
+  consistency with `Option`.
+- [Some miscellaneous renames in libcollections](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14279).
+- rustc is [more strict](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14251) about
+where it will accept a given `mod foo;` statement.
+
+## Other Changes
+
+There were a lot of various bugfixes and documentation additions all around.
+
+- There is now support for [weak failure](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14293).
+- The docs for the cell types [has been massively
+  improved](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14304).
+- `bytes!()` [now properly returns a static
+  slice](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14275).
+- A liballoc [has materialized](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/14230),
+  that contains all allocation support
