  1. in fact GC are more prone to memory leaks.

  2. gaurdrails are actually dangerous. because it makes devs dependant and lazy on those gaurdrails. I dont trust devs to make long term code with guardrails in place. Introspection like fuzzing, unit tests, static analyzers are much better.

  3. such tools breed human stupidity because hey its fool proof so any fool can use it.

  4. memory safe has no official definition. It might have a specific definition in a language standard but that is just the standard declaring itself memory safe. Memory leaks are obviously a type of memory safety concern. So is memory encryption, password storage. And even cache exploits. Not that Rust even IS a standard.

  6.  @Knirin  you are just being pedantic for the wrong reasons.

  7. stop conflating C with C++. C++ has STL and frameworks where you will never have to worry about memory yourself. Its mostly when writing libraries or game engines in C++ where you need to know more what you are doing and be concerned with memory.

  8. i am selling rust programmer socks.

  9. its designed by and for dyslexic people. and they put too much on one line which makes it hard to read and follow on a surface level. the whole point of a modern programming language is to be human readable.

  10. @ i learned c++ when i was 11. and javascript when i was 9.

  11.  @mmstick  calling major programming bugs "lack of optimization"? what meds are you on small brain?
