On: 2026 is an exciting year for the Rust compiler (and me)

[vor_ → lolakutty]

The implication being that you're writing in a language so unsafe that you need to pay for AI data centers to periodically double-check it for you. That isn't the argument in favor of C that you think it is.

[lolakutty → vor_]

Oh, do you think Rust code bases won't be checked using LLMs?

[satvikpendem → lolakutty]

I hope this is satire.

Thanks for your opinion, we’ll give it all the attention that it deserves.

A C user calling Rust a bad language is a fine example of the pot calling the kettle black.

[afdbcreid → lolakutty]

I've never seen a proof that LLMs can fix memory safety in C or C++ like Rust does. I'll believe it when I'll see it.

And I prefer to work with Rust than both anyway. Such advancement (if it will happen) will only make other languages like Zig feasible for me.

[ikety → lolakutty]

or to save tokens you can have an LLM write a borrow checker to do this for you. Oh wait you're just rebuilding rust...

[lolakutty → ikety]

The point of writing in C is that I don't have to deal with borrow checker shit when it is too dumb to figure out what I want to do is actually safe.

[simonask → lolakutty]

My money is on the opposite.
