I really want to do advent of code in rust but Ive never used it before. Might be a very good opportunity to learn (and hopefully not pick up some bad practices)

Advent of Code is the perfect occasion to pick up a new language and do monstrosities with it without any repercussions. As for avoiding bad practice, it will come from trying to avoid the pain at being yelled at by the compiler and Clippy
my strategy was to turn off copilot, etc, until i’d solved the problem, and then ask it what the “proper” solution looked like, and i learned a bunch of iterator methods that way
yeah humans are always your best bet, the gpt was all i had to ask at the time and i found i was able to come to what felt like an “idiomatic” solution pretty quickly
