"All of the performance of C without the footguns"
Nowhere in this sentence do I see "for every platform C targets".
Given no other requirement other than C without the footguns (memory unsafe) is there a good reason not to use the safe version? I'd say there are some, but they aren't crazy compelling (ie: developers have to learn rust, maybe harder to hire for, etc).
- boomlinde 9y agoIt's still a very realistic reason that someone would prefer C over Rust. Having to learn Rust, it being harder to hire for, etc. are really just as irrelevant to the named requirements, but important concerns nonetheless.
