Stack overflows and unsafeties are plaguing it since. Reading such a book would be a necessity for rustaceans esp. comonoid 3 years ago Well, we may use it to re-implement a GC in Rust! dreamcompiler 3 years ago That's like asking "Do we need Go now that we have Rust?" fithisux 3 years ago Exactly that.BTW My comment was ironic.
