 Did you know that the standard library is full of useful checks that users never get to see?

-There are plenty of debug assertions in the standard library that will do things like check that `char::from_u32_unchecked` is called on a valid `char`, that `CStr::from_bytes_with_nul_unchecked` does not have internal nul bytes, or that pointer functions such as `read`, `copy`, or `copy_nonoverlapping` are called on suitably aligned non-null (and non-overlapping) pointers.

 However, the regular standard library that is distributed by rustup is compiled without debug assertions, so there is no easy way for users to benefit from all this extra checking.

 [`cargo careful`](https://github.com/RalfJung/cargo-careful) is here to close this gap:
 when invoked the first time, it builds a standard library with debug assertions from source, and then runs your program or test suite with that standard library.

-Installing `cargo careful` is as easy as `cargo install cargo-careful`, and then you can do `cargo careful run`/`cargo careful test` to execute your binary crates and test suites with an extra amount of debug checking.

 This will naturally be slower than a regular debug or release build, but it is *much* faster than executing your program in [Miri](https://github.com/rust-lang/miri) and still helps find some Undefined Behavior.
 Unlike Miri, it is fully FFI-compatible (though the code behind the FFI barrier is completely unchecked).
