I like C++ a lot (minus the C parts) and was once upon a time a C++ hipster (if that would be a thing in mid-90&#x27;s).<p>However I enjoy even more memory safe system programming languages.<p>What I love in Rust, besides its ML influence, is making younger generations aware that systems programming languages don&#x27;t have necessarily to mean unsafe by default or the primitive toolchains from C and C++.
