Yes, this what Stroustrup said and it makes me laugh. IIRC he phrased with a more of a 'we had safety before Rust' attitude. It also misses the point, safety shouldn't be opt-in or require memorising a rulebook. If safety is that easy in C++ why is everyone still sticking their hand in the shredder?
- einpoklum 7mo agoYou're "moving the goal posts" of this thread. Safety has mattered - in C++ and in other languages as well, e.g. with MISRA C. As for the Core Guidelines - most of them are not about safety; and - they are not to be memorized, but a resource to consult when relevant, and something to base static analysis on.
