I have no prior knowledge of low level programming.
My question to all.
Should I jump straight into Rust ?
or should I do C, C++ in order to fully understand the abstractions in rust?
@seb @freemo @jump_spider -- please help and do tag pro coders and builders like yourself (I don't wanna waste all my time here discussing politics, need to make friends with knowledgeable people).

I'd say a good programmer should never be locked into a single language or even a small handful of languages. They all bring vital understanding to know even if you may work with one language at a time.
With that said if your looking to be a great programmer absolutely learn C, C++, even assembly, right along with Rust, Haskell, Lisp, Ruby, Java, learn it all. I picked that list of language because they each bring different paradigms to the coder that are very important to understanding and for thinking algorithmically as well as understanding the low level system and the abstractions we design on top of it.

Yea its good to start where you have fun, sure. Just keep in mind in the long run not to become one of those one trick ponies. I know far too many coders who try to do everything in that one language they love and nothing else... They tend to be horrible programmers :( If you are a hammer everything starts looking like nails :)
