- cxvxx 6y agoIt's more like snowboarding or any activity with a high initial learning curve before a big payoff: It's hard, even painful, at the beginning, and you might come home covered in bruises, but eventually it "clicks" and it's a lot of fun. Stockholm Syndrome is more about convincing yourself that a bad situation is good because you're stuck in it. I don't think there are too many people "stuck" with Rust yet. On the contrary, I think the borrow checker is a draw.
