If you're using an LLM to "learn", stop. Otherwise, I don't understand what lazy_static has to do with anything.

It's hard to tell what you're asking. But maybe you're confused because println! (it's a macro btw) expands to code that involves format_args! which is a compiler built-in that doesn't take ownership of the token expressions that get passed to it. Notice how the bottom of the format_args! page has this to say:

Lifetime limitation

Except when no formatting arguments are used, the produced fmt::Arguments value borrows temporary values, which means it can only be used within the same expression and cannot be stored for later use. This is a known limitation, see #92698.

So, it's kind of a feature and a limitation at the same time.

@BB_C disclaimer - no llm , I am following a book

Good.

Can you formulate your question better, with a minimal example and properly formatted code?

@rust @learningrustandlemmy
I might have missed some subtle syntactical difference here, I guess
aas in Vec<...> is a type definition, and Vec::<...> is referring to the struct itself, but with a type parameter given.
