Up votes by people who don't really buy all the Rust marketing about safety of the language, at least how it's gone about.
Personally speaking, and looking others threads on /r/rust, there is a fair amount of frustration when certain things don't work expected due to borrow checker (lifetimes, lexical scoping).
So when people who try Rust get a fair amount of smugness about safety when working with it... they will upvote stories where safety has been proved unsound in Rust.
- Rusky 12y agoExcept Rust-the-language hasn't been proved unsound. Rust's standard library has been found to introduce unsoundness through the incorrect use of `unsafe` blocks. `thread::scoped`'s interface just has to be tweaked somehow, not removed.
