Having gone the traditional engineering/cs route through university, I was trained to be a systems engineer. So C, C++, and Java were my first languages. Web has taken me away from that in recent years so I'd like to reexplore what systems programming looks like in 2016. Rust and Go are on the top of my list.
- jfoutz 10y agoGo feels like a "friendly" C, kinda. Rust is different. Vaguely like the ML family. They both have some neat ideas. Rust is probably more of a stretch, given your background.
- brown-dragon 10y agoAs jfoutz says - Go is almost like a "better" C. I really enjoyed learning Go last month (I wrote a go server for a mobile app of mine). The "Tour of Golang"(https://tour.golang.org/welcome/1 https://tour.golang.org/welcome/1) is a really good place to start. Is there anything I could write that would make it _easier_ for you to learn? Taking up project/quizzes/follow-ups...?
