He railed against the breathless descriptions not the languages themselves. I still agree with his put-up-or-shut-up position, and with throwing cold water on hype. My trade is engineering, and while I like whimsy as much as most humans, I will fight it when precision is critical.

- spacemanmatt 6y agoIs he wrong?
- tyingq 6y agoAbout "Rust has nothing"? That wouldn't be a productive conversation. On privsep being rare outside of C? What's the measure? I suspect privilege separation is present or not more based on the type of software, not the language used. And I'm sure you can find bad/good examples in software written in C, Go, Rust, Zig, etc.
