>We adopted Rust for its security and are seeing a 1000x reduction in memory safety vulnerability density compared to Android’s C and C++ code. But the biggest surprise was Rust's impact on software delivery. With Rust changes having a 4x lower rollback rate and spending 25% less time in code review, the safer path is now also the faster one.

Feels good to be on the right side of history.

What does this graph even mean? 80% of code written in 2019 was "unsafe"? What?

nigger what the fuck are you shipping
you shouldn't have 1000 memory safety INCIDENTS
you don't need rust, you need jesus
>>
>>107203020
presumably they mean code written in a way which is not guaranteed by the language/compiler to be memory safe. obviously any code in any language /can/ be memory safe, but rust and the like are specifically designed to provide methods of writing code that is actually guaranteed to be memory safe. at least, that's how i understand it

how are people coping after Google btfo literally every cnile cuck post, especially the deranged "UM RUST UNSAFE {} IS LESS SAFE THAN C" cope?

this posting is so fucking stupid and disingenuous. most the platforms "GCC supports" that LLVM based languages don't are all broken dogshit as well. at least LLVM and Rust are honest about this. I'm surprised they even merged m68k target in llvm.

>>107204696
don't worry. /g/eets can COPE and do cognitive dissonance effortlessly.

COPE example
>lol rust is not a memory safe language. there is no such a thing anyway
>lol so the number of bugs in rust projects is >0. i thought all rust programs are 100% correct. curious?
cognitive dissonance example
>lol rust has no jobs
>lol <every big company> is incompetent/pozzed/(((them)))
>>
>>107201134 (OP)
>C and C++ in the same category
Completely different things. Is this rust propaganda?

>>107201153
>they expect ffmpeg to fix all the vulns they report instantly
Nope, just within the standard 90 days. Alternatively, ffmpeg could have a quarantine phase for new patches and let google et al. fuzz them first. Or, if they want to merge things right away they should also be willing to revoke the offending commit and ask the original submitter to re-submit when it's memory safe. Plenty options that don't involve whining on xitter.

True, C is much worse since you don't even have basic data structures or algorithms or a standard library that isn't brain damaged beyond belief.

Do you think you're on the right side of history for forcing half-baked CVE-infested Rust reimplementations on popular GNU/Linux distros?
Glowies never stopped glowing I guess.
