The Lounge 0001 [From the Beginning]

I was exaggerating the situation of Sweden, where the police (and I think media) isn’t allowed to talk about the race of someone who broke the law.
Here it’s a bit of the opposite: if they’re foreigners it is mentioned, as when they’re locals it isn’t mentioned (but you’ll know as names are published, like “Arnold S. (70)”).

But enough of that as it has the potential of pol.

I apologize if this is indeed already pol.

I decided I try out the Rust programming language. I installed it and made a hello world program like a boss.:sunglasses:

Right now I’m at the very beginning of the really fun part of learning, reading lots and lots of documentation. Although it is written better then a lot of other documentation I’ve read.

ah yes always the interesting part of learning a new language. I’ve dabbled in go a fair bit recently but the documentation for that can be very lacking.

That’s the one thing no matter how good the project is, bad or limited documentation can really hurt it’s usability.

Yes, I do very much like go as a language though its just hard figuring out all its newances which can be a pain to get started with it.

The best way to get people to use something is make it easy to learn or use.

Guess I’m the only one here who doesn’t know how to code at all.
Tried a Python tutorial once…had the same mental blockade as with chemistry.

The problem with programming is just getting the initial concepts down and once you’ve got the hang of it everything falls into place and you can pickup new languages fairly easily.

Rusts got this nifty little built in package manager to to automatically deal with complex compilation and automatically manages dependencies for you with a .toml file. I’m liking this so far.

yep cargo? I’ve compiled a fair bit of rust programs before and I like how easy it is as it handles all the dependencies and everything.
