I have less than 10 yrs of exp and primarily focused on web, JS(node, react) and kotlin.
Now I want to try my hand in building low level stuff like parsers, small KV stores and some network programming.
Go seems to be more approachable for my goals but I have the FOMO of not learning to manage memory. I want to be able to work on performance critical stuff later.
I used some Cpp in college and I went through some tutorials (learn go with tests) in GO. I like them both.
Which language do you think I should go deeper in.
Once you’ve cut your teeth with a few projects, I’d recommend Rust first, then C++. I built good habits fighting with the borrow checker that improved the C++ I wrote out of the gate.
