Building a Compiler in Rust | Block Scoped Locals | Live Rust Programming

I made a pretty dumb mistake at the end of the last stream by forgetting to zero out a variable at the start of each loop. Let's make it harder for this kind of error to happen by adding block-scoped variables. This turns into a bit of a borrow checking nightmare, but I have enough understanding of Rust to overcome it now :D

4:30 Cache invalidation and naming things are the two biggest hurdles in programming

[@TomMarksTalksCodeLIVE]

Apparently this was actually said by Phil Karlton. The 2 biggest problems are naming things, cache invalidation and off by one errors. I don't know why I wrongly attributed this so badly :D
