Not sure exactly what you mean, but Rust is a pleasure to use and it'll change the way you think about coding (even in other languages). It's worth giving it a shot.
Well. That sounds convincing enough to me. I'll check out the official site and create my typical test of a language, creating a basic dice rolling console program.
Good luck! That's a really good starter project because you'll need to use a separate crate for RNG, so it'll teach you how to use Cargo and set up properly. I can't recommend using the Rust book enough, the first 2 chapters should suffice for your test.
Can I become a better python script kiddy of I start asking chatgpt for rust code?
Hmm, probably not? Unless you just use an LLM to help you with the Rust syntax while putting in your own effort to understand how to maneuver around the borrowing system and the type system.
