russell01+FollowRust vs. C++: Is Windows Finally Safer?Microsoft is shaking up driver security by switching to the Rust programming language for its new Surface PCs. Rust’s strict memory safety rules could finally squash the bugs that have haunted C and C++ drivers for decades. Is this the end of buffer overflows and system crashes, or just the start of a new learning curve for developers? Would you trust your next device to Rust-powered drivers?

rbarr+FollowTrait Upcasting: Rust’s Game Changer?Rust 1.86.0 just dropped, and trait upcasting is finally here! This isn’t just a minor tweak—developers can now upcast trait objects directly, making code more flexible and expressive. But with great power comes new risks: raw pointers to trait objects can introduce undefined behavior if misused. Is this a leap forward for safer abstractions, or are we opening the door to subtle bugs? Let’s debate! #RustLang #TraitUpcasting #Programming #TechDebate #SoftwareEngineering #Tech00Share
