gollark: I struggle a bit with Rust's somewhat more complex borrow-checker memory allocation thingy, possibly because I just haven't used Rust much for complex stuff.
gollark: I would probably struggle if I had to actually write a heavily-pointer-using C program, but I think I mostly understand the basics.
gollark: True, true. I do think a focus on some specific stuff like networking would also be helpful.
gollark: People are going to *use computers*, which is why I think we should have teaching on stuff like solving random problems instead.
gollark: *Reading manuals.*
