From the discussion

A few top-level comments from Lobsters, shortened. Read the full thread on Lobsters.

If anyone is interested, I have a [bunch of ATS posts](https://bluishcoder.co.nz/tags/ats/) showing how it can be used for safe handling of memory and others things.

I actually got this link from your March 23rd blog post after looking into building ATS2, because I was also looking at Rust + Verus. It seems like a very underappreciated largely language because of the prerequisite knowledge required to dig into it.

Ttese helped me get over the intial learning humps along with the official manual. Funny that when I was doing some learning about Factor a few months later, Bluish Coder posts come up again.
