Talking about flagged posts: why are they so hard to read? If I don't want to read a flagged post, I simply won't read it. Why are you forcing me to not read it by coloring it that way?
You may think putting C++ and Rust in the same category against C will make your comment a bit more popular. But the reality is Rust people cringe at C++ code a lot more.
It's not like NASA sent a rover, written almost fully in C, to Mars. It's not like billions of cars and even more billions of their ECUs are written in C. It's not like the firmware of the keyboard you're writing your comment on, or even the OS/browser you're using is written in C. C bad, Rust good.
I decided to use Go for a medium sized CLI app at work. It took me about 2 days to get proficient enough to write the whole thing without googling for every line.
I'd call Mars Rovers, especially the one recently sent, pretty "complex" or "modern". All of its software is C. So I'll simply call bullshit on anyone telling me "it's not possible to achieve what Safe Rust does" in C.
