Today I learnt that Lua projects often use *3* spaces for indentation! https://github.com/luarocks/lua-style-guide/blob/master/README.md#indentation-and-formatting I initially thought something was very wrong with editor config.

Coming from JS or Python, imports in Rust feel weird. They're entirely optional aliases for fully qualified symbols, which are always available. I don't know of many other languages where you can just start using libraries. Java is the only one I can think of.

Assertions are a surprisingly nuanced design space. In a test, if I assert `x < y`, I really want to see the values of x and y when it fails. Do you define an API for every possible predicate (Python's assertLess, expect.js) or try to support the native syntax (c.f. pytest)?
