- pjmlp 4y agoTooling, existing ecosystem, built during 40 years of production deployment. Rust is naturally safer than C++, however there are still many domains where a bit of yak shaving is required before actually coding what one cares about. So it boils down to where to spend resources, and as note, I am definitly not a fan of Orthodox C++ ideas, rather having C++ improve its safety story as much as possible.
