Thats kinda the problem, there are concepts in rust that don't have equivalents in other common languages. In this case, rust's type system models data-race-safety: it prevents data races at compile time in a way unlike what you can do in c or c++. It will prevent getting mutable access (with a compile time error) to a value across threads unless that access is syncronized (atomics, locks, etc)
