A comparison of Rust's borrow checker to the one in C#

Rider definitely can hold a candle to Visual Studio. In my dev bubble there's about a 50/50 split for C# devs (mostly .NET Core) using VS vs Rider

In mine the VS crew is the minority by far. VS is much worse, especially without ReSharper and at that point why not just use rider.

I’m sure you can point to many things Rider is better at, but I’ve found enough sharp edges (including, annoyingly, it not being able to infer types that Roslyn can) that it’s not a sell for me. It’s also much faster and supports NCrunch.

Never heard of ncrunch but I googled it and its described as > the ultimate live testing tool for Microsoft Visual Studio and JetBrains Rider

So it seems at least that part of your critique is outdated.

I'm not sure what you mean about the inference, I've never had any problem with that that I can remember. And it can be a bit slow to start up or analyze a project at first load but in return it gives much better code completion and such.
