modern languages are just actually just newer. they are all memory safe but they have a garbage collector or reference counting which all speed down the software. so i learn about rust and found that it has no gc or rc, it uses RAII (some people call it lifetimes) to enforce memory safety. but RAII is actually old, originated from C++. few languages use it (D, Ada, Vala, and Rust). none of those languages is popular. C++ is popular but it does not enforce memory safety. do you have experience with memory safety and RAII? i'm particularly interested in a language for web development approaching C performance.
>inb4: just throw more hardware in
my objective is to increase speed for the same piece of hardware
>inb4: swift has ARC
this is plain reference counting but it is automatic so it has the same speed deficiencies as reference counting.

t. dum fuck who needs safety

So you don't want Rust, because it has RAII that is actually old? I don't get you senpai

most rust packages released depend on rust nightly. good backwards compatibility for rust stable and pkgs is bad, so i'm always falling in dependency hell.
for example, good documentation (guides) for the release version that run on rust stable of hyper is not available, so if i want to create an web app i need to use a framework because framework design wont change much across releases. but well supported web frameworks do not have ability to interface with a database.

nevermind. I said shit. ´cargo update´ solves dependency hell. rust rocks.

Speed down the software
Shit lad
