I haven't used Rust, but many of the comments and articles I have read about the benefits of the language and the strong desire for develop robust and/or safe software are virtually the same as what Ada supporters have been claiming for decades.

It's a good thing more people are realizing we really need to stop settling for C and C++, stop investing more money into tools that simply compensate for the weak foundation of those languages, and finally adopt safer alternatives.
