I memorably referred to Rust's significant semicolons as "the worst thing in the language" after my very first read through the tutorial, last November.

Almost a year later, I'm just as in love with Rust's semicolon rules as Armin is. However, I bet new users will still be just as instinctively revolted as I initially was.




I guess it depends on what languages you're experienced with. I just read through the Rust tutorial for the first time 2 days ago, and I fell in love with the semicolon rule at first sight.
