This seems to be getting a by high spirited here. Am I supposted to respond in kind? "A language where common idiomatic code cannot express where integer overflow is correct or incorrect has no place in 2014. Even C does better than this." I don't really think such dramatic language is helpful. There are real tradeoffs in this space and some of them are mutually exclusive. Different people for rational reasons prioritize different criteria over each other, that doesn't make anyone wrong. There is no need to 'win' an argument, or even argue at all. Presumably everyone can hear ideas and preferences in this space without the discussion getting that intense. _______________________________________________ Rust-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev
