-<!-- QOTW goes here -->
+> Bugs like this are the worst! It's almost impossible to catch them in development, because there is never enough load on the system to force the scheduler to move the execution to another thread. So, you end up with one of these "impossible to reproduce, fails sometimes, but never for you" bugs.
+>
+> It's mind-blowingly cool that the Rust compiler can detect something like this. And that seemingly unrelated parts of the language, like mutexes, lifetimes and async operations form such a coherent system.
