lru-rs VS subsurface

For reference, the fix for https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-45720 was as simple as this commit: https://github.com/jeromefroe/lru-rs/commit/ea64c8f932a45434cbc71d3843d28af7c1819864.

You didn't seem to click the commit the guy linked with the rust code https://github.com/jeromefroe/lru-rs/pull/121/commits/416a2d...

It has nothing to do with opting out. Zig, Rust and no language saves you when you write incorrect unsafe code. My original point is disqualifying c tools is misleading and everything suffers from incorrect unsafe code

why would you think he doesn't use other apps? Heck, he even wrote this https://github.com/subsurface/subsurface , although now other folks maintain it.

Also Subsurface Dive Log

Do you mean Subsurface?

> From the words of Linus himself

Since you don’t cite the source, I will assume that you’re referring to the Subsurface documentation (https://subsurface.github.io/download/). Linus himself, however, did not write it: https://github.com/subsurface/subsurface.github.io/commit/91...

So true, where would we be without Subsurface ?

Coincidentally, Linus Torvalds took a sabbatical to make a dive log program. https://subsurface-divelog.org/

He's actually very pragmatic & uses C++ too when he likes the framework using C++ better. https://github.com/subsurface/subsurface

That didn't stop him from making a pet project in C++: https://subsurface-divelog.org/ I'd say that if he seriously didn't like it, he'd have used C or something else.
