Undervalued comment right there. This is better than the OP

Pretty sure javascript is like c but I I can’t be mad at the js devs for the awful language they write.

No, Rust lacks the semicolon elision rules of Javascript which make everyone always use semicolons in javascript because they’re so horribly broken.

Rust is like ML, quite literally, not just by ancestry: The syntax is palpably ugly, but at least it’s sane, regular, and concise where it matters.
