While The White House (and actual Rust and Go enjoyers) are advocating for these safe memory-safe languages; what is really going on is that the warts these languages have are just not as well known yet. In a few years time Go will be just as hated as C++, and there'll be some new darling programming language that'll "solve all out problems". To be fair, I do look forward to when logic programming languages get their time in The Sun. |

But if we can go to (X/2)% error rate then that's still a win.
I wouldn't mind if we replace Golang and Rust in 10-ish years or so. For now they are definitely doing better than C++, especially having in mind that the old guard is gradually retiring and the newer generation are not as good with it.
You seem disappointed that we haven't found the one true universal language yet. I am as well, but no need to trash-talk the current iterative improvements. Apparently that's how we'll get to that ultimate thing.
