hrefna, It's fascinating to me looking at beginning language guides and thinking "what does this say about the culture of the language"
When I was delving into #OCaml it was (with affection) "here's hello world and here's a dense academic paper on implementing event systems in OCaml 5!"
#Java guides used to be centered on the assumption that you were a web programmer looking to do applets, even long after that assumption died.
#RustLang generally seems to assume a background in programming w/ a CLI.
