Best part of the article for me: > C is not the primary reason for our past vulnerabilities > There. The simple fact is that most of our past vulnerabilities happened because of logical mistakes in the code. Logical mistakes that aren’t really language bound and they would not be fixed simply by changing language. Moving to Rust for new projects seems like a good idea, but I just had an experience moving from Clojure back to Java for a new project recently that helped me realize something: it's not about the language. When I moved back to Java, it wasn't about the language anymore. It was about building something cool. There's always this subtext to any programming I did in Clojure that was like "you're doing this cool thing in a cool language and that makes it better", but in java it was "hey let's make something really cool". That's what this guy is saying the most, I think. It's not about the language. It's about building something rock-solid, and rewrites aren't usually the answer when that's what it's about.
