in other news, I've been writing some rust today and despite some frustrations, it makes me happy by how much sense it makes.
despite the weird memory model, I have been fighting mostly my skill and not the language itself. so far anyway.

compare and contrast to vue.js (and webpack) which is generally awesome, but in many places I'm fighting the way the thing is designed to work.
maybe comparing a language to a framework isn't entirely fair, but...

I mean, okay, I wanted to do a gui with conrod and I switched to printing in console basically six lines in.
I'll go back to "hello conrod" sample later when I understand the language better

but if you need to put together parts from seven different modules, each nested four levels deep, just to initialize the thing... one can't help but think that there's a better way.
