Python is memory safe? Can’t you access/address memory with C bindings?

      Yeah the standards for safe C++ haven’t changed, no matter how much the language changes.

        I would say the standard has changed. The current guidelines require you to use features that didn’t exist before C++11. C++11 was a huge change and it made C++ a lot nicer. The updates since then have generally been improvements but more incremental than revolutionary.

        Print from html to PDF in a browser was 708 pages, so maybe half that if printed like a book (less whitespace etc.). About like a Rust textbook. Still a lot I guess.
