@hds I think the context of your code is very important: if it's client-facing or if it parses untrusted data, then C and C++ are really dangerous languages. This has been widely reported: https://www.whitehouse.gov/oncd/briefing-room/2024/02/26/memory-safety-fact-sheet/ This is why #Android is investing so much into #Rust: a phone is a high-value target these days.

I liked the keynote by Lars at @Rustnationuk where he focused on how Rust can make teams more productive: https://youtu.be/QrrH2lcl9ew
