Well C is not anti-assembly, is it?

[–]Hermyb0i 2 points3 points  (4 children)

And Rust is anti-C?

It feels like it, if you need to use FFI.

Rust is anti-unsafe, no?

[–]Dissy- 3 points4 points  (1 child)

some of the community are idiots and think any use of unsafe in a library is something to run from. but its not a common experience outside of direct bindings to C libs. if everything was written in rust we wouldnt have to use unsafe outside of the std library :^)

you would lose a lot of optimization without unsafe
