What is wrong with the commenters on Phoronix? There seem to be a bunch of old dudes who can’t accept that C is unsafe and no amount of “skill” will prevent it from being unsafe. They look at 3 decades of unsafe C with thousands of CVEs and still think it’s a skill issue.
If you think the comments about Rust are bad, you should check out any article about X11/Wayland or systemd.

Anything useful is still “unsafe.”
Anything useful is still “unsafe.”
So you take care with the bits that have to deal with C, just like you have to with C code itself, and then all the rest of your code is still safe by default. Still a net improvement, yes?
