annoying behaviour sometimes found in community tech support channels, subtooting a rando, generic second person 

reading and analysing your non-compiling Rust code: gladly offered free of charge
elaborating on the compiler's error output, drawing on my experience to explain in more detail why it doesn't work: gladly offered free of charge
offering suggestions for how to restructure things so that it does work: gladly offered free of charge
tutoring on the relevant concepts and theory so that you come away with a better understanding and are less likely to make this sort of mistake in the future: gladly offered free of charge
listening to you complain extensively about how Rust is bad and you dislike it and would rather be using something that didn't have lifetimes: starting at $10/hr (30min minimum), contact to receive a quote

@polychromata I assume it involves the same pattern of "I don't want to use $language, therefore I will not bother learning how it works, and blame anything it does differently from $otherLanguage as a failure of the language rather than reflecting on my own understanding" that I see regularly in JS support rooms?
