[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 97327, post: 1037105"] [USER=26718]@silversurfer[/USER] Big advantage RUST has over C and C++ is that it has memory safety (so when you define a table with for instance 10 rows, you can't access the 11th row in Rust). So in terms of exploit protection, the author should have taken into account, I thought that 20 percent of the (low level) system code is written in Rust, but I also thought that most of the the Rust team were fired in the large round layoffs of 2020. Firefox was regaining some of the backlog it had in terms of security until Microsoft decided to base Edge on Chromium and started to implement 'old-Edge' security mechanisms into Chromium. So despite Mozilla publishing all sorts of positive articles on how they gain back security momentum, I am afraid they lost half of what they regained since Microsoft added its development manpower to Chromium.
