I'd like to start adding a 'quote of the week' to TWiR. So far though I've been terrible about taking note of good quotes from the Rust world. And also there is much more going on than I can follow personally.
So this thread is to beg for people who see insightful or funny things said about or in relation to Rust to post them here. Please provide links - if it wasn't recorded it didn't happen!
Leads on good quotes will be rewarded with appropriate kudos.
Rust tells me at compile time why what I'm trying to do is probably not a wise choice.
The complete quote:
I've found that Rust has forced me to learn many of the things that I was slowly learning as "good practise" in C/C++ before I could even compile my code. Rather than learning by trying to solve segfaults, debugging my pointer messes, etc, Rust tells me at compile time why what I'm trying to do is probably not a wise choice.

<jdm> I want my furnace to start working again
<jgraham> Somehow the word "furnace" makes me feel like jdm is actually Saurman building an Orc army. Which I suppose is one alternative to GSoC
