Dan Jacob on Nostr: Managed to get through most of the #rust book over the weekend - I tend to jump back ...
Managed to get through most of the #rust book over the weekend - I tend to jump back and forth a lot in learning, so some things not completely understood yet (e.g. lifetimes and wtf 'static means).
Some thoughts - the Rust type system and compiler will really do their best to stop you breaking shit, and that is IMHO a good thing.
Most of my career is spent in maintenance - bug fixes & features. Speed of writing code is never the problem. Speed of fixing it is.
