When Rust, JS, Python? 🫡
little update;
- C is nice but not for the faint of heart
- C++ I found it to be C with added garbage that one has to learn not to mess up memory
- Go is beautiful, thanks nostr:npub1fjqqy4a93z5zsjwsfxqhc2764kvykfdyttvldkkkdera8dr78vhsmmleku for letting me discover it
I am following https://quii.gitbook.io/learn-go-with-tests and fucking hell, finally a guide for noobs that explain to me how I should work and think when I program, how I should do tests and so on.

Python is where I come from.
JS I tried many years ago and hated. Rust I am not sure, seems too complex.
it's really hard to read as well, and the "safety" is illusory nonsense based on threat models that are way out of date (stack smashing and buffer overflow attacks are so 20 years ago, much more important is protocol attacks and if you can't read the code then lol)
Interesting. Rust is a bit complex, but you can learn it by doing some practice. Of course, you need to have a lot of patience.
the thing is that I don't want to become a full time dev.
I want to do math, and write/test the math and the algos with an efficient language, but I don't have time to master it completely.
I want to spend time thinking about the logic, not the syntax, that's why I like Python. Because it's simple, and easy to become good at it.
Sounds good. I’m not against Python or math. I think both are necessary
