I set up a Raspberry Pi 3 with AdguardHome for a friend of mine, and told him to disconnect everything at home and try to watch anything on his phone, being the only device using his home's internet.

He just sent me this, and now he's ready to #degoogle 🤣🤣🤣

He says there were hundreds in less than 5 minutes.

Programming is like solving math, I think?

If I were you, I'd learn C instead. Rust is not used (much) on low level development. Currently C is not replaceable.

I've heard the authors of C said: "C is not a big language, and it is not well served by a big book". But it is so powerful, simple, and fast.

You already have a course on Rust, for "basic programming", so keep going on the course for a while. Learning any programming language can make your mind. And it is a course, so I'd expect the authors of the course to familiarize you with definitions.

Yeah, its been pretty basic the first week. Lots of definitions like "object oriented", "compiling" and such. I never thought of C. I was going to jump on Java first, but Rust has a very good rap as far as I've seen along devs, which is why I went with that instead. Goes to show how ignorant I am on the subject. Thanks a lot, really.
