"Safer with Google: Advancing Memory Safety"

IMHO also Swift is also worth of a mention in this context given how it has been growing far beyond Apple's ecosystem. I've never even tried it but my friends who do games for consoles, mobile etc. seem to like it (and competition is great).

@jarkko Hard agree! Swift is awesome, would really love to see it being used more. If you're looming for more oop than what rust has, swift is a great offering.

@vaguelytagged I pay my bills with C and Rust but yeah I believe mostly in ecosystems where there are multiple choices and not one single best choice :-)

@jarkko Oh yeah for sure! Don't get me wrong I'm definitely not bringing Swift into prod at my work, but cool tech is in fact cool :)

Besides Swift and Rust I'm not sure of other cpp successors doing concurrency safety.

Plus the buy in from ladybird is cool to see!

@vaguelytagged TBH, I don't mind if you do. Whatever makes you do create awesome things is awesome by definition :-) I'm not a language/tool fan at all...
