Even if you are not into Rust, I'd recommend this book if you want to get into low-level and/or embedded programming. It's an exceptionally well written introduction into the most important topics there and ~80% of the book are not specific to Rust (or can be transferred just as well to other languages).
- throwaway17_17 2y agoThanks for this comment. I’ve had this book sitting on my To Be Read stack for about 10 months but kept bumping it down because I don’t use Rust, but the title and ToC was compelling enough for me to buy it and hope for non-Rust specific content. Even if your 80% estimate is 20% to large a guess, I’m definitely going to pull it up to the top of the stack and read it instead of passing it over.
- self_awareness 2y agoThey can be transferred, but other languages have also other concepts and other mechanisms of synchronization. This Rust book seems solid, but I would not assume other languages to have the same mechanisms as in Rust the same way I wouldn't recomment using programming patterns from other languages in Rust.
