The reality is that this game had consistently been the most popular game for over a decade now. So practically any exploit that could be in the code can and has been found. The source code is just a cool novelty to see how this game was developed at this point.

    I am pretty new to Rust and I find the docs can be a little confusing sometimes so I'd be really thankful for people who can help me understand this.

    So for my uni project we are doing part of it in Rust. and I am having issues understanding how the modules function. So here is my example program.

    Main.rs does some stuff and then passes a pointer into a function from a separate Rust file. That function then does some more things and passes a new variable into a function form another separate Rust file as a pointer.

    main.rs has mod separate_file1; and then in separate_file 1 there is a mod separate_file2;.

    The confusion is that separate_file2 does not read from the same directory as main.rs despite being in it. Instead it looks in a sub-folder under the same name.

    If someone could explain to me why it works like this and what the best practice is for using modules I would be really thankful. It's made me struggle a lot.

    I'm sure that economics is part of it. But I think the larger issue is the fact that you need 9 streaming services now just to see the shows you'd want. And then these streaming services are starting to remove the things people paid for. I set up a Plex server and just use that to watch things now.

    Because I'm in my very early 20s I missed out on the huge Java craze. Everything was Python when I started getting a more formal education and before then all my work was in C++. Knowing more languages would obviously look better on a CV but I mean if I would benefit in a practical sense? I have two friends who are long time Java devs. And recently another friend who generally works with legacy C++ based systems from the early 2000s late 90s period had to work on a bunch of stuff in Java. Java is clearly still in large scale use among older systems. So would it be likely that eventually I would need to work on Java systems myself when my job is mostly JavaScript currently?
