Guy’s talking bollocks.
We need diversity in strategy.
So Rust good then.
growing movement toward legislation
Uh… u wot? What movement towards legislation?
What movement towards legislation?
I am guessing they are talking about SBoM (Software Bill of Materials) type things.
But overall (as a mostly non-programmer), I am not convinced either. The warplanes analogy makes no sense to me. As far as I can see, Rust is more like seatbelts in a car.
What nonsense, of course you can write safe code in other languages. What makes it safe is the people that are experienced in writing it securely and test it. But not all code has a high standard of quality, due to time pressure or due to lack of skill. So yes, the only way to be sure you have safe code without spending more time on training and testing is if the language does it by design. Has this guy ever worked in software engineering?
