We've actually had feedback from some startups using Rust for low level stuff (where their teams comprise mostly of Python/Ruby/JS devs) that Rust teaches systems programming and memory management quite well (since you're forced to work with it), unlike C++.

> Rust teaches systems programming and memory management quite well Couldn't agree more. Incidentally, this is also what I dislike so much about C: it does a very poor job of telling the programmer what is wrong with their program. Learning systems programming with C feels (to me, at least) like learning to walk by crawling in the dark.
