I think it's less about the culture and it's more about the big language developers making their languages safe by default for 90% of the developers using them.

The "culture" aspect may come in when you're encouraging people to use languages such as Rust over C++, rather than something like "always follow this 50-point security checklist no matter what language you use".
- IncRnd 9y agoProduct design, protocols, cryptography, regulatory restrictions, and so many other aspects have nothing to do with the language. Not every vulnerability stems from missing range or bounds checks. I mean this is the best way possible, but your answer shows that even people on HN don't understand what goes into securing a product.
