  1. wrong. So very wrong. The old adage of the venerable troll Dijkstra about basic-crippled minds now applies even better to Python and Java. Start with one of them, and cripple your capacity for understanding anything else later.

  2.  @sagars861  rotfl, what a narrow perception of the "real world". Webbies are so funny. But it's a bit sad, really.

  3. Use cases for C++ and Rust overlap, but not entirely. The real question should be Rust vs., say, SPARK. And I'd argue that the latter is far more mature and capable.

  4. ​ @Caellyan  the main difference is that SPARK is verified. You cannot formally prove correctness of a Rust code.

  5.  @Caellyan  yet, there are no built in tools for you to write your own certified code in Rust, while in SPARK it is out of the box.

  6.  @Caellyan  again, I am talking about proving your code, not merely using library code with guaranteed behaviour. This is something I am quite used to in hardware, and it is a shame that similar tools are not as widely used in software.
