I have no prior knowledge of low level programming.
My question to all.
Should I jump straight into Rust ?
or should I do C, C++ in order to fully understand the abstractions in rust?
@seb @freemo @jump_spider -- please help and do tag pro coders and builders like yourself (I don't wanna waste all my time here discussing politics, need to make friends with knowledgeable people).

ps - where do i donate to qoto
@Full_marx @freemo @jump_spider I say: Jump right into Rust. No need to punish yourself with lower level programming languages, unless you need to program very limited hardware.
@seb @freemo @jump_spider I wanna some day work in defence.
Cyber security specifically
They say #sandworm was written in python and then in rust.
But I don’t want to miss out on the funamentals. But i also don’t wanna punish myself as you said.
If i pick a task too tough I might end up loosing interest.
Golden words. Will keep in mind !!
@Full_marx
Yea its good to start where you have fun, sure. Just keep in mind in the long run not to become one of those one trick ponies. I know far too many coders who try to do everything in that one language they love and nothing else... They tend to be horrible programmers :( If you are a hammer everything starts looking like nails :)
