While I agree with the motivation behind your statement, I don't think Rust has proven itself yet to the degree that it should be a default choice for anything.

Remember that compilers and runtime libraries can have bugs too, and new ones tend to have more bugs than those maintained over some time.
- kolev 12y agoYes, runtimes and libraries can have bugs, too, agreed, but at least you will have to just recompile with the patched version vs having to fix and test your code as fast as possible. It's more efficient as well as fixing the core will benefit many (well, of course, that would have compromised many as well... to start with).
