That makes sense because the #1 reason I have had to roll back my own C++ commits is due to crashes from some dumb failure to check whether a null pointer is null. If Rust is going to prevent that issue and other similar issues of stupid coding, you would expect whole classes of rollbacks to go away.
- acdha 2y agoI now compare C to an IKEA bed we have in our guest room which has storage drawers making the edge straight down to the floor without a gap. I’m a grownup, I know that I need to stop half a step early, but every few weeks I stub a toe while I’m thinking about something else.
