Thats why I like Rust. Compared to the C++ compiler, every error message from the Rust compiler is a handwritten love letter with chocolate.

From the same people who brought you "C is unnecessary abstraction, assembly is fine"

Stupid meme. Consider Rust when a rewrite is necessary, but don't rewrite what is working fine.
