I wasn't talking about security, but correctness, although statistically people underestimate the level of security required by their projects, more than not. Memory safety does not imply correctness, but if you want to reason about correctness you really have to trust that your program doesn't do something funky with your bits. And, at least my programs, like to prove me wrong about what I believe is possible.
- Cloudef 6y agoIf you want correctness, you need proofs, or generate the code from specification. And even then cosmic rays and bit-banging and faulty hardware can break your application. Or simple change of stack size :)
