Because of the `move` keyword the closure actually takes ownership of the `movable` variable, not an immutable reference. The reason we can call the closure twice is because the `movable` variable INSIDE the closure is the owner of the data. Meaning we can call the closure any number of times.

    The Rust programming course by freeCodeCamp.org is an excellent introduction to one of the most modern and powerful systems programming languages. The instructor explains complex topics like ownership, borrowing, and lifetimes in a clear and beginner-friendly way. The course is well-structured, covering fundamentals and practical examples that help reinforce each concept. It’s ideal for developers coming from other languages who want to understand Rust’s safety and performance advantages. Best of all, it’s completely free and accessible on YouTube. Whether you're new to Rust or need a refresher, this course is a solid resource to build a strong foundation.
