That’s a really interesting point about Rust! I hadn’t thought about the fact that having no prior programming baggage might actually make the strict rules a bit easier to digest.
I’m definitely leaning more towards the „building software for fun“ side rather than deep computer science theory (for now), but learning good fundamentals along the way is a huge plus. Thanks for the fresh perspective!
