algorithm design and managing memory is something you have to think about regardless of what language you use, that should be obvious. Using rust doesn't guarantee correctness or performance, that should also be obvious. Rust has features that make it easier to make correct and performant software, I think most programmers would agree? Please stop this rust clickbait nonsense. | ||

> Using rust doesn't guarantee correctness or performance, that should also be obvious. Judging from the most vocal segment of their community it's very much not obvious to them. > make it easier Define "easier." It's harder to make mistakes. I'm not sure this equates to developer "ease" in any way. In fact, if it's meant to be effective, it should be quite the opposite. > rust clickbait nonsense. It cuts both ways. There is a huge volume of "I switched to Rust and got 1% additional performance over C" posts here. | ||
