    even though Rust is objectively better.

    In some of its characteristics, Rust is certainly a good language. The borrow checker, however, still haunts my restless dreams today.

      I’m a C/C++ dude but I heard it being called the “Karen compiler”. It doesn’t look that scary based on samples I’ve seen, but there’s way more to it I am assuming.

        I’m no Rust expert, but in my experience the borrow checker is a pain for a bit, then you start to get a sense of what works and what doesn’t, and after a while it has taught you to write cleaner code.
