🦀 ChatGPT has some great ideas for new #rustlang features:

Me: Explain what `rustc --diagnostic-format=limerick` does.

ChatGPT: rustc --diagnostic-format=limerick is a command line flag for the Rust compiler (rustc) that changes the format of the error messages and warnings it produces to be in the form of a limerick. This means that the messages will be written in a five-line rhyming poem with a specific syllable count for each line. This can make the messages more entertaining and easier to remember, but may not provide as much detailed information as the default format.

Me: Give an example.

ChatGPT: Here is an example of an error message in the limerick format:

A variable called "x" you declared,
But its type was not properly clarified,
The compiler it cried,
"You must specify!"
Or your code will not be verified.
