For any would-be readers - please ignore the clickbait-y headline! I went into this expecting to hate-read someone complaining how Rust is too hard and they don't need it anyway because they never make memory management errors in C++ or something. This is nothing like that at all!
This is an excellent article that's about completely different issues that's much deeper and more interesting than that headline implies.
