doesn't change the fact that it doesn't do what it claims to now . I just don't care about vague promises and "trust us bro" vibes that tech is sold for nowadays. It claims x, it doesn't deliver x. Maybe it co

I heard that unsafe rust is then unsafer than c++. I haven't learned rust yet, and I get that it's a tradeoff because the rest of the system can still be relied on. But how true is that first statement?
