This would have been better with Rust and C++

I had a linker error in Rust for the first time today and I started crying til I saw someone say to just delete the build cache lol

With Rust it's usually just a fluke that can be fixed by doing that, but C++ linker errors may indicate the start of several frustrating hours. That's been my experience at least.

cries into the chest of the borrow checker

Okay, but genuinely in what cases the borrow checker caused issues for you? Cause I use Rust for a few years now and have not yet encountered the infamous fight with the borrow checker.

Also, there's a "new" and "better" borrow checker coming in 2024 edition.

'tis but a joke. I'm still learning Rust, and really appreciate the borrow checker.
