Hmm... Might be time to start looking into Rust. Is it popular in college? I think that's what made Python displace Java. EDIT: lol. Decided to dive in a hit this almost immediately: https://docs.rust-embedded.org/book/start/io.html https://docs.rust-embedded.org/book/start/io.html

You can count the college courses on two (or maybe three) hands. Not quite there yet.

That's the guide to embedded programming. If you're just looking to learn Rust, start here: https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/

No, but C/C++ is widespread and the relative understandability of Rust for those coders and advantages of Rust will certainly aid its adoption.

Rust is probably never going to be the ideal first language for anyone to learn. This is a problem because a lot of people will turn to the language they first learnt, which they know best, when faced with any given problem :-(. But it makes sense that the easiest language to learn might not be the best language to use to get real work done...
