I've been playing around with some parser ideas, in Objective-C because I see some need for those concepts in work, but I'm thinking a language that works for other applications would be cool, so I'm like "maybe I should write that in C++, or... I've been wanting to learn Rust!"
And then I start to look at Rust, and all of the other things I could be learning, and man I'm just unmotivated to be learning technologies for their own sake right now. And that's kinda sad.

If you're wanting a new language, Zig is kind of the "Rust, but for C" alternative. It's not quite as safe as
Rust, but has a whole lot less ceremony. It's also early in its development, so there's rough spots and
missing features. But I like their goals of being fast to compile.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your
comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel
they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't
try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted
if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
