Pizlo is not a memory safety absolutist. His rhetoric towards rust is a tactic specifically designed to draw more attention to him and his project. It is amplified by people who already had a bone to pick with rust and take joy in giving rust folk "a taste of their own medicine," so to speak. Articles like this are taking the bait.

What a weird take.

I think the limits of Rust’s memory safety are interesting to discuss, as are the limits of Fil-C’s perf and practicality.

It’s best to discuss these things rationally, rather than accusing folks of trying to draw attention

Repeatedly calling Rust "memory unsafe" and then shoving your fingers in your ears when people refute you is not "discussing the limits of Rust's memory safety". Stating that your detractors have "Fil Derangement Syndrome" is not engaging in rational discussion.

> I think the limits of Rust’s memory safety are interesting to discuss, as are the limits of Fil-C’s perf and practicality.

Notably absent from what you claim to be willing to discuss are the limits of Fil-C's memory safety, or the possibility that it could be less safe than Rust.

What you're doing is well explained here:

I don't think it's too weird of a take, we do things for many reasons. I get that it feels bad to have that directed at you as an accusation. It's rational to discuss the intent behind actions, but I think the parent is hinting at "so we shouldn't take what Pizlo says seriously", which isn't a good conclusion.
