Yes, can't have .unwrap() in production code (it's ok in tests)

  Like goto, unwrap is just a tool that has its use cases. No need to make a boogeyman out of it.

    To be fair, if you’re not “this tall” you really shouldn’t consider using goto in a c program. Most people aren’t that tall.

      Nonsense. Linux kernel for one example, uses goto everywhere for error handling.
      • gishh 10mo ago
        How many codebases besides the Linux kernel had you seen an intentional amount of use of goto?

          The answer is one search away on GitHub. I will give you one example though: various .NET repositories (runtime, aspnetcore, orleans).

    panicans should be using .expect() in production
  • metaltyphoon 10mo ago
    Yes it's meant to be used in test code. If you're sure it can't fail do then use .expect() that way it shows you made a choice and it wasn't just a dev oversight.

  unwrap itself isn't the problem...
