I am learning Rust right now and it's super fun. It does give some headaches with the borrowing stuff and variables not living long enough to deal with them in a scope, but for the most part I've figured it out. It will probably be my language of choice from now on since it's fast, intuitive (once you get the hang of it), and has a large community and good documentation.

bash is the most powerful programming language. once you learn bash you become ungovernable

i kinda dipped my toes in zig for a project. it's really immature as a language and it shows especially in tooling but i managed to learn some somewhat lower level things through it so that's good! unlike rust which feels so high level i tend to forget it's not
i really liked how easily it integrates with C code. literally just include a C header and bam
the build system was also interesting. i heard you can also just use it as a build system for C code tho i'm not sure how that works

YESSSS true i love bash. great for easy script writing. so awesome. and there's no compiling using any specific compiler because its literally just a shell script. if i hadnt learned bash then i would probably be jobless. its a great thing i am jobless either way then. :lol: :(

At the moment I am sticking to Java, Python and JavaScript. I wrote a lot of python and js in undergrad so i am pretty familiar w/both.

I've built a http server using C and I want to use C and C++ more, but I have a bad habit of learning a lot of things before I gain deep knowledge and I really want to get some deep knowledge on some tech so I can sharpen my skills. My current job requires me to write a lot of Java, so I figured might as well get cozy with Java as getting Java/C# gigs is a little easier than jobs that use bleeding edge js frameworks.

You are both brave for diving into bash. :geek: I only ever use bash to customize my terminal. I just use python if i need a script to do something simple for me real quick.
