Achieving Safe, Aliasable Mutability with Unboxed Types
This is part of Ante’s goal to loosen restrictions on low-level programming while remaining fast, memory-safe, and thread-safe. Background When writing low-level, memory-safe, and thread-safe programs, a nice feature that lets us achieve all of these is an ownership model. Ownership models have been used by quite a few languages, but the language which popularized them was Rust. In Rust, the compiler will check our code to ensure we have no dangling references and cannot access already-freed memory (among other errors).
