I don‘t think so. The language is not perfect, and if you actually took the time to understand it’s benefits instead of spouting falsehoods, you‘d be able to see its advantages. My employer certainly sees its benefits, as do a lot of Fortune 500 companies right now.

I love C and I have used it for more than a decade, but I wouldn‘t choose it again. The most important thing I save with Rust is time and also my sanity. The very fact that I can trust my code if it compiles and that I don’t have to spend hours in GDB anymore makes it worth my while.
