i asked claude opus 4.7 to refactor a large codebase. 68 minutes, millions of tokens burned - it finished
nothing worked. app completely broken
but god it was beautiful
🦀 Microsoft just open-sourced a comprehensive Rust training curriculum and it's impressive.
The microsoft/RustTraining repository on GitHub offers 7 structured books covering Rust from beginner to expert level, designed for developers coming from different backgrounds:
🟢 Bridge Books (start here):
• Rust for C/C++ Programmers
• Rust for C# Programmers
• Rust for Python Programmers
🔵 Deep Dive: Async Rust (Tokio, streams, cancellation)
🟡 Advanced: Rust Patterns (Pin, allocators, lock-free structures)
🟣 Expert: Type-Driven Correctness (type-state, phantom types)
🟤 Practices: Rust Engineering (CI/CD, cross-compilation, Miri)
Each book includes 15–16 chapters, Mermaid diagrams, interactive Rust playgrounds, and exercises.
Whether you're a systems programmer migrating from C++, a .NET developer exploring performance-critical code, or a Pythonista tired of the GIL, there's a path for you.
⭐ Already at 500+ stars. Fully open source (MIT + CC-BY-SA-4.0).

Rust is becoming a serious part of the industry stack. If you've been waiting for a structured way to learn it, this might be it.

Software Engineering with OOP and imperative/structural programming is a well-elaborated discipline.
We have a lot: design principles, methodologies, architectures, design patterns, best practices. There are dozens and dozens of books, more or less good. Countless applications built with these ideas. That's a lot of knowledge and wisdom.
Do you think Functional Programming is on par with OOP? Is it equally capable? Do we have everything for Software Engineering in functional languages, and if not, what is missing?
