pros of using rust:
- very helpful compiler messages
- very helpful linter messages
- code will almost always compile and work on first try because of the above
- cargo manages packages better than pip, with about as many handy packages to make your life easier
cons of using rust
- rust-analyzer *will* eat 2-3 gigs of ram
- the compiler will also eat 2-3 gigs of ram when running
- that is almost half my system ram
- what does it need all of it for
- please give it back
The rust compiler is actually a very smart robo-t-girl. She should only take 250MB of ram to run but sometimes she’s also thinking about 4k pictures of industrial machinery and other types of kinky stuff.
You could try and clicker-train her into only thinking about rust but I can’t guarantee the results
