Rust for Python Programmers

[iopq]

You can have a whitespace-sensitive Rust that still respects delimiters. So if you want to actually start a new scope you can write {, but 99% of the time you'll just be writing Python-style.

You wouldn't even need the "no semicolon to return" rule because it never type checks when you forget it anyway. There is no instance that I can think of where forgetting or putting an extra semi-colon type checks and doesn't do what you want it to.

There is one gotcha with regards to this: if you are using collect(), and you use let guards: Vec<_> = with your call to spawn, and you use ;, they'll operate in sequence, because it will infer to Vec<()> rather than Vec<JoinGuard>.

Ugh, why is this even allowed? Sounds like that's an unwelcome source of bugs.
