> I don’t buy into the rhetoric that memory safety solves everything
I haven’t heard that rhetoric, only that memory safety is a really good thing. If I can pay up front with some static analysis and eliminate entire classes of bugs, that’s just such a great thing, even if it doesn’t solve everything.
I want to like and use Odin, because the guy behind it seems really cool, and it’s pretty indie, like zig. But the strong guarantees of rust are just so compelling.
