Do you recommend it for those developers not working in the C/C++ space?

Should one learn Rust, lets say after 3-4 years, i.e by mid 2020s, once it becomes more mainstream? The syntax of Rust is a mix of OCaml/C++ and I feel some of the concepts are very esoteric for a normal enterprise Java/C#/JS/Python developer, so it takes a lot of cognitive overload to master it. So is it worth learning now or later?

FYI 'Saag' is just a generic name to refer to gravy dishes, that are eaten with chapatis. There are hundreds of varieties of saag.

Sad to hear about your fiancee. Good that this helps in keeping her alive in your memories.

I'm currently learning Ruby as I plan to implement the 'Building Git' book by James Coglan. Ruby has lot many features/syntactic sugar and a weird OO model. Makes me feel quite uncomfortable. Also, no good IDE except RubyMine.

Is there an Android equivalent of such a course? CS193A doesn't have official videos and resources like this one. Any other university course?

This also resonates with me. He sometimes doesn't know the things which should be known even to a CS undergrad!!

I'm afraid Julia will always be ignored in favour of Python. Python/C++ have a firm grip over its niche for years to come.
