> But nobody rewrites C code in Rust if they believe existing codebase is free of memory safety hazards; they rewrite it because they think the result will contain fewer hazards, even accounting for the potential problems at the FFI boundary. That's pretty generous. They re-write it in rust because a "Show HN: Thing-X, in Rust gets upvotes." |
