My skill prevents bugs, unlike your fancy compiler, peasant.
(programming.dev)
"Rust's compiler prevents common bugs" So does skill. No offense to you, but, this trope is getting so tiresome. If you like the language then go ahead and use it. What is it with the rust crowd that they have to come acrosslike people trying to convert your religion at your front door?
The really annoying part is all the people saying that you shouldn't like Rust because actually it's not magically bug free. Yeah, no shit. No one who touched Rust claims it lets you write bug free code. People like Rust because it's modern, fast, has great tooling, great documentation and really nice features like Traits and Algebraic data types. Memory and thread safety is just a bonus.
Ammm actually... ☝️🤓 most Rust evengalists claim that Rust prevents you from writing bugs
Any type safe language will help you prevent a wide range of bugs that non safe languages need tons of tests to detect.
We're talking about memory safety here, though.
Same argument though, just a different value for the topic.
Agreed. The C++ guys are basically JavaScript guys arguing that type safety errors are a skill issue. They must hate TyoeScript.
