I had a realization that rust is so popular among autistic males/mtfs (they're the same thing really) because it promises certainty about stuff like memory safety, which appeals to the autistic brain.
In reality, it's impossible to get anything done while being 100% safe (autists hate this fact), so rust just ends up getting in your way and you basically end up writing C or C++ (but shitter) in a big unsafe block
