I'm not sure how to do an #introduction, but I mainly do data processing from hardware, and general software automation for my coworkers.
I'm in a very tech-heavy workplace, but everyone focuses on their own specialty -- my specialty just happens to be getting other people's stuff done with as few steps as possible! (:
To this extent I'm really interested to know how the age breakdown of people on the #Fediverse. On one hand it would seem to make sense to me that most people here remember the "old internet" before the centralization and they're here to rekindle that flame of independence. On the other hand the youths are generally pretty up on this whole technology thing. I grew up on the internet and since then smartphones have become even more ubiquitous.

@brianchau Definitely the Rust Book (https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/book/) and Rustlings (https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings). The borrow checker has gotten a lot easier to work with over the years, due to lots of great work by various people. The hardest part for most people, I think, is wrapping their heads around lifetimes/ownership, usually a completely new concept of memory management to most people.
This one is for all the new people on #Mastodon: did you know that the #fediverse has more than just a microblogging replacement? And that they can all interoperate with your Mastodon account?
