Every large code base in history of the world has bugs, doesn't matter which language. What you provided proves nothing. I don't know what kind of "programmers" you are talking about maybe some from mozilla (they are known for making same shitty mistakes over and over again, i will not mention exploits over the years in firefox, breach into unfixed bug/exploit internal system etc.) but i know programmers that can write good C++ without making any memory problems and Rust has nothing to offer for them. You are just biased.
- the_why_of_y 10y agoOf course every large code base has bugs, that's why we should be very concerned about what the consequences of such bugs are for users. Please see my reply in the other sub-thread about very similar story of exploitable memory safety bugs in Google Chrome fixed in every release; do you want to continue your line of argument with a claim that Chromium developers are all incompetent too?
