TWiR quote of the week

Like, right before I posted it.

I've confirmed that the conversation happened around 2016-08-05 07:08 UTC. (...Should I make this a service somehow?)

logic on /r/rust :

The best way to learn Rust is to just try! and see what works (or is this to just see what works? now?)!

I'd love to pick this for QotW, but I'm having difficulties locating a permalink for it on BotBot.me + Startup Resources | Startup Resources

"Why Iā€™m dropping Rust" was so meh and it got into TWiR? Rdedup never
got to TWiR, while it is way cooler than a guy that just couldn't force
Rust to be Java. :stuck_out_tongue:

On recommendation of @llogiq.

UPDATE: @llogiq did not recommend this quote. What he said was CotW and not QofW which I misread.

From #rust:

<vadix> is there an atomic Cow in std for sending Cows across threads
* matematikaadit imagining sending "cows" across "threads"
<matematikaadit> poor cows...

Do not leave bovines in such a bad situation!

(In reality, Cow is Send when the associated lifetime is 'static, so it can be sent across threads. Non-'static lifetime would need to use scoped threads.)
