@endrift Ah frick, I just migrated from home social. I did try to get into treehouse systems but unfortunately couldn't as I didn't know anyone that could invite me.
By the way, would you mind giving me an invite? 馃槈
I just finished reading "The #Rust Programming Language", a.k.a "the book".
Exactly two weeks ago I started learning it to solve a bug in uutils (which I fixed!), and today I reached the end of the final chapter! 馃コ
I am now officially a #Rustacean and a proud one too! Why didn't I learn it earlier?
@nixCraft I was 14 and I was trying to make a program to backup my Minecraft world saves 馃槄
Before that I had unsuccessfully attempted to learn #python, it never clicked to me. Everyone said that the syntax was easy but it wasn't easy for me.
What did click with me was Windows Shell Script, a.k.a Batch!
I felt very powerful when I started writing my little batch scripts. Soon after I discovered an obscure language called #AutoIt which I loved! I still use it to this day, professionally too.
So I'm learning #rust and found an example in "the book" confusing, so I opened an issue on GitHub to add a note which will hopefully prevent any further confusion!
I wonder if it's just me being too dumb or if I'm the first one actually who actually read the full text.

@Sheril What a boring dystopia we live in, consuming and waiting for the inevitable, instead of trying to fix it.
A century in the future we'll be seen as the boomers who were sitting on their asses while the world burned.
They'd be the ones responsible for putting out the fire and recovering from the damage.
@[email protected] Mission accomplished! My pull request with a patch to fix the issue has been officially merged into the main branch!
