Row_hammer You're citing a hardware flaw as a reason not to pursue programming tools and techniques that produce fewer software defects? That's a false dichot

Row_hammer You're citing a hardware flaw as a reason not to pursue programming tools and techniques that produce fewer software defects? That's a false dichotomy; we don't forego researching cancer treatments just because some of the people that are saved will end up getting shot. Earlier you wrote "Security is all or nothing". That's another amazingly bad point of view. There is no "all." Nothing is absolutely secure. There is only raising the bar. Important things are provided more protection than less important things. That is the best that can ever be achieved. Since your premise relies on a fiction your conclusions about the value of Rust are meaningless.
