> Bugs occur in rust code too. It's not a silver bullet to fix all problems associated with software development. Not being a silver bullet doesn't mean it's not an enhancement. Of the two bugs mentioned in this announcement, one is an uninitialized local variable, which is allowed in C but not allowed in many other languages (like Java or Rust). The other one is an implicit cast from an enum to a signed integer; in languages where this particular kind of cast must be explicit, not only it's easier to see when it's a signed integer, but also it's more probable that it would be cast to an unsigned integer instead. > Each language will have its own set of issues and quirks. It's easy to pick on C because it's been around far longer than most things. It's easy to pick on C not because it's been around for longer than most other popular programming languages, but because it has a larger amount of footguns. It's true that Rust has plenty of quirks of its own, but most of them will not cause security issues.
