My friend from university sends me his Rust code snippets sometimes. Ngl it looks like a pretty cool language.

There was also that tldr reimplemention in Rust that is a gatrillion times faster than the original.

I really want to give it a try but I have executive dysfunction and don't have any ideas of what I could use it for.

Rust is definitely a really cool language (as someone who has played with it just a little) but it's quite headache inducing, at least for me at the moment.

What's causing the most headache for you?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Mostly the ownership model, trying to remember which functions expect borrowed types or not, etc.

The error messages in rust are really good, so I can usually make the code work quickly, but I need to properly understand the reason behind the error in order to learn, so that's when I get headaches
