Anyone using Rust on Linux workstation? I'm thinking about d/l the package and try it out. I Want to try manipulating CAT controls on radio transceivers.

I do plain C mostly for 8 bit embedded. Also used it for doing BLE on a RPi. In the end, probably won't do that again, but man that was fun. C++ on 32 bit embedded.

Tried my hand at mobile dev in C# inside the Xamarin framework. Fuck. That. Yeah, it got the job done... but at what cost...

Then there's the screwing around on my Tandy 1000 in 8086 assembly.

I'd guess I wrote 10x more in C than C++. I haven't written anything in almost 20 years. Quit my job and changed careers.

That's funny. Changed careers long time ago to do this stuff.

Same here, done way more plain C than C++. Simply because most of my development was on 8 bit microcontrollers.

I miss the challenge at times. I really enjoyed writing killer applications. Far more personal satisfaction than the routine crap. But my new career was far more profitable.
