> Rust? It's much more painful to use than C++

Write a sufficiently complex memory safe program in C++. I dare you. It's been proven again and again that humans can't do it. And calling Rust more painful than C++ is just absurd.

That is totally easy.

What's not so easy, necessarily, is complex numerically safe program in C++ (that performs well).

I write them routinely. Many, many people write them routinely. It is easy, in modern C++.

You appear to have fallen for the Rust hype machine.

We do know many people at Google can't.
