There’s a visitor in town, and its name is 3I/ATLAS. The presumed interstellar comet presents a rare opportunity for astronomers to study an object born a long time ago in a star system far, far away.

There is no memory safety without thread safety

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-01-08 12:35:39

There is no memory safety without thread safety Memory safety is all the rage these days. But what does the term even mean? That turns out to be harder to nail down than you may think. Typically, people use this term to refer to languages that make sure that there are no use-after-free or out-of-bounds memory accesses in the program. This is then often seen as distinct from other notions of safety such as thread safety, which refers to programs that do not have certain kinds of concurrency bugs
