This is supplementary/separate from the Twitch Streams (see sidebar for links), intended for discussion here on lemmy.
The idea being, now that both twitch streams have read Chapter 4, we can have a discussion here and those from the twitch streams can have a retrospective or re-cap on the topic.
This will be a regular occurrence for each discrete set of topics coming out of The Book as the twitch streams cover them
Ownership and the borrow checker are obviously a fundamental and unique topic to rust, so it’s well worth getting a good grounding in AFAICT.
- Anyone up to trying to summarise or explain ownership/borrow-checker in rust?
- it can be a good exercise to test your understanding and get feedback/clarification from others … as well as probably a good way to teach others
- Any persistent gripes, difficulties or confusions?
- Any of the quizzes from The Book stump you?
- Any hard learnt lessons? Or tried and true tips?

Provides IMO some really helpful perspective on what references are in rust and how they should be seen and used (in short, they are much more restrictive and constraining than The Book would tell you and should be used conservatively for this reason).
