Saying other programming languages are easier to learn is practically the same as saying they’re easier to start writing bugs sooner.
I forgot who said this but something like “if reading code is ‘debugging’ then writing code is ‘bugging’”
- resource0x 4y agoThe difficulty of learning translates to the difficulty of understanding and "mental fog". Mental fog translates to logical bugs that either the compiler or human reviewer never catches. As a result, the program becomes buggy in more subtle ways than before. To claim that overall, rust reduces the number of bugs during the lifetime of the program, we need experimental data, which is still missing.
