From what I’ve heard from Google employees Google is really stringent with their coding standards and they usually limit what you can do with the language. Like for C++ they don’t even use half the fancy features C++ offers you because it’s hard to reason about them.
I guess that policy makes sense but I feel like it takes out all the fun out of the job.

Is this a hard error? Like it doesn’t compile at all?
Isn’t there something like
#[allow(unused)]
in Rust you can put over the declaration?Yes it is a hard error and Go does not compile then. You can do
_ = foobar
to fake variable usage. I think this is okay for testing purposes.From what I’ve heard from Google employees Google is really stringent with their coding standards and they usually limit what you can do with the language.

As far as C++ goes, that’s probably the only sane way to use the language.
