C and Rust

@Gankra_ Ahahaha. Good for mental health

@terorie_dev Looks like the main difference for a developer is a reduced compilation time and program .so size (cause it won't unroll loops)

[Kirill Konevets @KKonevets]

@terorie_dev So what is the main difference for a developer between bpf and sbf? A developer can do more with sbf, but what exactly?

[Kirill Konevets @KKonevets]

@terorie_dev As far as I know safety guarantees are made at run-time. "Moving safety checks to the runtime allows arbitrary memory access, indirect jumps, loops, and other interesting behavior" https://t.co/8A0YhOBlID

[Kirill Konevets @KKonevets]

@terorie_dev If sbf will allow loops, random memory access and indirect jumps how will this effect a protocol developer code? What rust features will this open? Will it allow to write async code in sbf?

@pencilflip It is very time consuming to draw such diagram. So it is mostly unfeasible
