Sounds like Rust propaganda to me >:(
Tbf, you have to be pretty far with Rust to get to a point where Rust's compiler errors stop helping you (at least, as far as I've seen). After that, it's pretty much the same
Rust has better runtime errors, too. If you run a dev build, it should pretty much never segfault unless you use
unsafeand will instead tell you what went wrong and where, no valgrind necessary.Would know, I've never had a runtime error in Rust /s
Can't have a runtime error if you don't have a compiled binary *taps forehead*
(For the record, I say this as someone who enjoys Rust)
This is actually unironically a major benefit of Rust - compile time errors are supposed to be for dev mistakes and runtime errors supposed to be for user mistakes. Way easier to debug something at compile time instead of runtime.
