Last year, I did #AdventOfCode as an exercise to learn #rust. It’s a sequence of daily programming puzzles in December. I’m thinking of doing it again this year and learning #haskell.
I don’t try for speed, and I don’t try to be the first to solve a problem. I take my time and solve each day’s problem a day or two later. It would be nice to have people to chat with about solutions if anybody else is interested.

@codo_sapien I really enjoyed learning #rust. I like the language design and the community is friendly. It took me some time to understand borrowing. And I didn't get as far as multi-threading.
If i had to pick a new language for work, it might be #rust.
@bwbeach I mean, being the most-loved language on the Stack Overflow survey for 6 years straight has to mean something, right?
That was the original reason why I want to check it out, but I've been listening to some a lot of #rust advocates, and I'm genuinely interested in the language features now.
