Rust S̵̓i̸̓n̵̉
I̴n̴f̶e̸r̵n̷a̴l mutability!
Howdy, friendly Rust developer! Ever had a value get m̵̯̅ð̶͊v̴̮̾ê̴̼͘d away right under your nose just when you need it? Your thread function requires move semantics, but you j̸̉us†̸ ain't got time for †̸̰͋h̸ą̷̊͝t?
W̵e̴l̵l̸ ̵w̶o̴r̶r̴y̶ ̵n̶o̶ ̷m̴o̷r̶e̴,̸, just sprinkle some s̴̖̑í̵̲ṋ̵̀ on it and call it a day!
sinner = "0.1"

Doubly-linked list
With just a̸ ̸b̵i̸t̴ of sin, you can do doubly-linked lists in no time!
