Is this a good way of handling errors in Rust?
There are crates out there that help you reduce this boiler plate. thiserror is good for creating custom errors and color-eyre or anyhow are good for dynamic errors.

Unwraps EVERYWHERE
No, that's right! I forgot about that, sorry. I took a look again and the difference seems to be https://docs.rs/eyre/0.6.5/eyre/trait.EyreHandler.html, which allows one to change the way how Errors/Reports are shown. A good example for that is color-eyre.

How to debug Just My Code in Vscode?
Definitely more on the application ecosystem side, but I’ve personally found the combination of the tracing (https://tracing-rs.netlify.app/tracing/) crate (especially with liberal use of the instrument macro - https://tracing-rs.netlify.app/tracing/attr.instrument.html ) , color-eyre (https://github.com/yaahc/color-eyre — adding contexts as I bubble up errors ) and then wiring the whole thing up so I get tracing log entries, and spantraces / stacktraces just seems to provide me enough visibility. Most of my code has been running in async/tokio, so I have no idea what the debugging experience would even be across await points.

Rust: Structuring and handling errors in 2020 (2020)
Another crate to mention - eyre and color-eyre, basically a port of anyhow but a few bells and whistles, and an awesome colored error report formatter.

Rust Learning Note: Exception Handling
We can utilize third-party libraries to simplify the code above. For example thiserror (https://github.com/dtolnay/thiserror) provides convenien derive macro for Error trait:
- I can't get my mind around Result, Option, or basically how control flow works in most Rust programs

Ideas for crafting CLI in Rust
thiserror crate makes it easy to do so using macros on CliError enum.

I love building a startup in Rust. I wouldn't pick it again.
Depending on your use case, thiserror and/or anyhow.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (52/2022)!
What is the benefit of splitting a proc-macro crate into (usually) two crates, proc_macro_crate and proc_macro_crate_impl? Why not just have one crate? Does it offer any benefits to to overall compilation times? An example of this can be seen in the thiserror crate where there's a thiserror and thiserror_impl crate.

Parsing of DeviceId
You might want to use thiserror to generate implementation for Error and Display.

Generics can make your Go code slower
I dont think you realize how ridiculous this comment is. Youre comparing 10 lines of Go, with 200 of Rust:
