Rust is often sold feature by feature; the borrow check offers proof like safety over fuzzing, cargo provides real versioned package management over makefiles or git commits...
I choose Rust because taken as a whole, Rust changed the way I approached laying out my memory and how I composed my code. I think this more than anything leads to less issues than the equivalent C++. The article points out that a Rust vs C++ solution to any given problem are going to be completely different.
My only desire for Rust is to see compile times speed up and the C++ interop to improve.
- mrath 8y agoYes compilation times are a big pain point. I heard that there is work being done in this area.
