What's your opinion of Rust?
I heard so much good things about it and want to pick it up when I have time (don't know what project to do with it yet, maybe something with sockets?) but also am worried about getting disappointed because I have high expectations now, haha
There’s some learning curve around ownership and there are some weird bits of syntax here and there (and Geeze async traits WHEN). But overall I really like it. The way I describe it is it kinda front-loads a lot of complexity/pain that you’d normally deal with at runtime to be compile-time grief. So some things take a bit longer to think through or work out, but generally if it compiled it’ll Just Work and be fast as hell.
