    I enjoyed working with Rust once I got into its workflow. The borrow checker and lifetimes suck for people not used to the concepts. The funny thing about languages with lots of safety features is when people just unsafe things, an option in many languages to give oneself plenty of rope for a self-hanging (or, “footguns” is the hip new way of saying that).

      I’m guessing it says “either I’m being forced to use this language or it’s the only related one I know how to use, but only halfway”:-)
