What it feels like when Rust saves your bacon
This article is super overcomplicated.
All it had to say was that rust tells you when you keep reference to on stack variable after it goes out of scope. Context provided adds nothing.I must say - as someone who doesn't use rust - I haven't had this type of issue in years, and when I did it wasn't hard to debug. You get corrupted data, set data breakpoint and in the provided example you will see it being modified by unrelated operations on stack. From there there is only one conclusion. Authors reactions seems to be a bit exaggerated.
