Text on the meme
Convince my friend that he should switch from C++ to Rust. My friend has severe autism and only understands explanations in the form of Harry Potter analogies. If your friend is anything like me, they probably appreciate the wizarding world of Harry Potter. In the same way that Harry Potter is a powerful wizard, Rust is a powerful programming language. Just like Harry Potter has the power to defeat evil, Rust has the power to defeat memory safety issues like buffer overflows. C++ is like the Dark Lord Voldemort: it's dangerous and it's hard to control. Rust is like Harry Potter: it's safe and it's easy to use.
