200+ memory safety errors were found in rust crates: https://www.infoq.com/news/2021/11/rudra-rust-safety/
I love rust, I think there's a good chance zig in its current state isn't the answer, but saying rust is totally memory safe is wrong. You drop into unsafe and people make the same errors C/C++ devs make.
In C/C++ world, _everything_ is unsafe, so you can't even limit your exposure in the safer parts because you can do unsafe operations anywhere.
> you don’t ever have to even think about those kinds of things as long as you trust the compiler and the Unsafe code that you rely on.
Your comment is not some kind of gotcha. I can’t be bothered to give the long-form disclaimer in all of my follow-up comments. Read the context.
