I'd like to start adding a 'quote of the week' to TWiR . So far though I've been terrible about taking note of good quotes from the Rust world. And also there is much more going on than I can follow personally. So this thread is to beg for people who see insightful or funny things said about or in r…

On appreciating explicitness in code: [image] How to add a crate? After many years of writing bugs, and then discovering Rust, I learned to appreciate explicitness in code, and hope you eventually will too.

To date, there have been zero memory safety vulnerabilities discovered in Android’s Rust code. Memory Safe Languages in Android 13

Or maybe this one: Safety measures make memory-unsafe languages slow (Same source)

Strongly seconded, and I'd even suggest potentially highlighting the article even more than just another link in the link section. For the quote, I think it's even more powerful to include the context directly following in the same article that Based on historical vulnerability density, it’s like…
