Hi all! I'm very sure I'm not the only, who just learned programming by it self.

A major difference between learn ourself from a formal way is the methodology, for example a full good course will be organized to present and teach you from the basics and needed knowledge and going up step by step, this causes to the ones who learn by them selves to have holes in the knowledge, which is very hard to fill, because how you don't know it, is hard to know what or where to look.

Think that is also usual to mostly know high level languages, which directly lacks of very basic things like Stack or Heap and more things.

From there, I have fall in this several times, Rust is very technical, we need at least some understanding of C/C++ to understand the challenges, but this is not enough to be able to understand Rust in a deep way.

I think, the language it self do not needs much of non-rust things, but if we add implementations this opens the door to memory management, cpu cache, stack, heap, hardware and even more things that I don't know!

So, what is good to learn, that is not directly related to Rust, but it helps a lot to use it? obvs try to avoid to apply this go inside C/C++, but maybe is hard find a book which handle this on Rust, and I don't know if all this follow the same logic, like makes sense in WASM?

Thx!
