I spent around 30 minutes reading "Rust for functional programmers" [1] to get overall perspective and then around 3 hours more reading selected chapters from "The Book" [2] about borrowing, lifetimes etc. Then I managed

I'd suggest giving a try to data types + type classes as opposed to OOP. E.g. Haskell and Rust. Or OCaml, F# or Scala for combination of OOP + functional style.

This. If there has to be a regulation, I'd require companies to give more freedom to users, e.g. to choose default search engine, install alternative app stores, allow access to public data without account (e.g. LinkedIn) etc.

It'd make sense for numerical computations. Otherwise, there are like 10 faster-than-Python languages I'd consider instead of Julia (incl. Erlang/Elixir, Go, Rust, Java/Scala, Haskell).

It's only a problem if you actually want to hire them as employees. Otherwise paying workers should be as easy as just wiring money to their bank accounts. It's worker's problem to figure out the laws in their country: do the

Elementary mathematics is not invalidated by calculus, unless you had a really bad teacher. I'd say same with Newtonian and 20th century physics. Newtonian physics _is_ a proper mathematical model for large masses slow speeds, unless y
