Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

I've been doing r/roguelikedev's summer tutorial as an excuse to learn Rust. Getting my head wrapped around borrowing and ownership has been more annoying than I anticipated.

I only spent a couple of hours reading the docs, but it did not look simple. Necessary, maybe, but not simple.

ESR spent some time looking at it and decided to start writing code in Go instead.

I do a lot of Go work in my day job, and I'm fond of it.
Rust is apparently close to putting an improved borrow-checker into the stable release, which does control flow analysis to permit some obviously safe code that the current stable lexical analysis forbids, such as:
let mut scores = vec![1, 2, 3]; let score = &scores[0]; scores.push(4); // error now, not laterSo that'll be nice. I spent an hour or two last week wrangling with the borrow checker over something similar.
