I'm interested in your thoughts on Rust if you attended the talk.
I'm currently learning Rust the old fashioned hacker way (from books and
other people's code :)). My biggest mistake was trying to use Rust with
SDL2 to display some graphics. My head still hurts from banging it into
a wall called 'lifetimes'. :)
(Sorry for the topic necromancy. :))
I just saw a presentation on a somewhat C-centric approach...
Learning Rust the "Dangerous Way", starting with how to do C-like things, and then draw back towards "rustacean" ways.
