Programming

Once you've learned it, Rust is just a very nice compiled language to work with.

You get higher level constructs than in C++, a language without a billion weird edge cases, a modern package manager, and much more. In my experience, my code written in Rust is more likely to work as intended, both because of the stricter compile-time checks, but also because language features like sum types make it easier to check the core logic at compile time.

I work in both C++ and Rust, among other languages, but these days I never reach for C++ for a new project

A fake sense of security by pretending that simple apps that don't expose low level interfaces and use wrapping libraries for all parts of networking need to be implemented by-design memory language, or for people who just like rust.
