C vs. Rust: Which to choose for programming hardware abstractions

The correct answer, of course, is Ada.

Ada is really good at making this kind of bit hacking very transparent. It might be interesting to create a Ada version of the examples in the Article to illustrate this. Even the Rust solution looks really messy compared to how Ada approaches this.

big yikes on this one, ada is often used by white supremacists

[–] k_o_t@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 years ago (1 children)

pretty sure white supremacists also use rust and c lmao

white supremacists use c but not rust, one of the many reasons rust is the perfect language

I'm pretty sure he's trying to "subtly" say I must be a white supremacist because I like well-designed programming languages over languages that were written.
