Of course you can, Rust is an unsafe language but people tend to use the safe subset of it. Are you telling me that is impossible and they are writing unsafe code?
- kazinator 2y agoI'm telling you you've not read the entire thread, which I started with: "Programming languages should be safe by default, except in clearly delimited sections of code (as small as a single expression) where the programmer requests less safety." In terms of the word semantics of the situation, people writing in a safe subset of a language are writing safe code. Once they use the unsafe bits, then they aren't.
