minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink24•8 months ago Reimplements in C Segmentation fault (core dumped) change code so it no longer segfaults still is UB, has arbitrary code execution vulnerability everybody dies
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink13•8 months agoBut you died faster, that’s not to be underestimated
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish3•8 months agoI write rust on a meh computer alot and have never had compile times be that bad (at least not for debug). The target dir is massive though.
