Quote examples

1

To paraphrase what I remember of the original comment, it was "I stopped using Rust when I got to the Dining Philosophers chapter of the book and found that it taught newcomers to leak memory like crazy, via a bug that has gone unfixed since 2014." It contained no mention of which bug that was nor where the leaks were, hence the numerous follow-up comments asking for clarification.

2

" the Dining Philosophers chapter from the book which cannot exhibit the leak from that issue because it doesn't define any destructors (let alone define any potentially-panicking destructors, let alone attempt to catch any panics, all of which would be required to observe such a leak)." Since when can memory leaks only be observed from within the language itself?
