I hate to say it, but with all of the Rust rewrites we’re seeing (and going to keep seeing) Now is the perfect time to learn Rust. (especially lower level Rust)

@dreamsofcode_io you do you man but I'll stay with my C++

Alternatively, you can do what I'm doing. I haven't bothered to learn how to write Rust by hand, because that's never going to happen. I've taught myself enough about how to read the language so that when I prompt an AI to generate it for me I can review the result. That's quite enough.

@dreamsofcode_io Yes everyone is going to love maintaining code written by AIs for ports of things that didn’t need to be ported in the first place. Winning strategy right here.

@dreamsofcode_io You have no idea what youre talking about, do you?

@dreamsofcode_io “Learning Rust” is a terribly bad idea if your goal is to understand the computer. Rust goes out of its way to hide what the machine is doing, and restrict the programmer into the narrowest set of operations. There are 100 better options

@dreamsofcode_io #![no_std] rust?

@dreamsofcode_io i would assume you should fix your hypocrisy problem first. "c++ bad rust good" but then rely on millions of lines of C++ in the form of LLVM

@dreamsofcode_io Or just stick to battle-tested, less-hyped languages like Java, Go, or C/C++.

@dreamsofcode_io What do you mean by lower level rust?

@dreamsofcode_io Seems like an opportunity to more confidently ask AI to implement in rust code.

@dreamsofcode_io Should give a disclaimer that it's unlike any other programming language that you have seen. Ownership and borrow checker will give you a hard time to wrap your head around. Took me over a year to fully grasp it.

@dreamsofcode_io but why :D i have a project thats over 1M rust lines as of now, dont know any Rust and dont see any reason to waste time learning it
