I’m a CS student and I currently know basically 0 Rust.

Lately I’ve been wondering whether it’s worth investing time into learning Rust from scratch, or if my time would be better spent focusing more on cybersecurity and networking instead.

For people who already know/use Rust:

- Do you think learning Rust is genuinely valuable in 2026?

- Has it actually helped you professionally or technically?

- Is it a good language for growth as a programmer, even if you don’t end up using it daily?

By the way, I also wanted to ask something related but slightly different: when learning a new programming language from scratch, what do you think is the best approach today? Should it be mainly the official documentation/books, or do tutorials/courses + AI assistance make more sense for beginners?

I have a genuine question about how professional websites are actually built nowadays.

I always assumed that a “serious” website or a powerful online store had to be fully custom-built (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, backend, etc.), but then I see that a huge number of websites use WordPress, Shopify, or other CMS/builders.

I also hear the term “marketplace” a lot, and I’m not completely sure how it differs from a normal ecommerce store.

For people who work in web development or have real-world experience:

• What percentage of professional websites would you say are built with WordPress or other CMS platforms?
• When is it actually worth building something fully custom?
• Do large companies and serious online stores usually use CMS platforms or custom development?
• What’s the real difference between a normal ecommerce store and a marketplace?
• Technically speaking, what makes a marketplace different?
• Is building a marketplace significantly more difficult than building a standard ecommerce website?
• Are there real differences in performance, SEO, scalability, or maintenance between CMS-based sites and fully custom stacks?

I’m interested in understanding how this works in the real world, not just the “ideal” technical answer.

Hola a todos, Tengo unos 15.000 € en liquidez que quiero ir moviendo progresivamente hacia fondos indexados en DCA a lo largo de los próximos meses. Estoy dudando entre dos opciones para "aparcar" el dinero mientras tanto:

​Trade Republic: Cuenta remunerada (actualmente al 2,02%, según tipos BCE).

​Groupama Trésorerie IC (FR0000989626): Fondo monetario a través de MyInvestor.

Sé que tendré más facilidad desde myinvestor para ir traspasando conforme hago el DCA pero no sé si implica mucho más riesgo que la remunerada en relación a lo poco más que voy a ganar en rentabilidad.

¿Cuál es vuestra opinión?

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for some advice on where to park my cash while I execute a DCA (Dollar Cost Averaging) strategy. I have €12,000 that I plan to gradually move into index funds over the coming months.

I am torn between these two options for the "holding" phase:

Trade Republic: Cash account (currently offering around 2.02% or the ECB rate).

Groupama Trésorerie IC (FR0000989626): A Money Market Fund (MMF) via MyInvestor

I understand Trade Republic is covered by the Deposit Guarantee Scheme (up to €100k), while the MMF relies on asset segregation. Also is important my tax efficiency (Spain context): Since I am based in Spain, I know that switching between funds (MMF to Index Fund) is a tax-deferred event (traspaso).

I’m looking for the most efficient, profitable and safe setup that won't make my tax return a nightmare

Thanks in advance!

I had to prepare a class diagram: "A company implements several projects (identified by unique names). The project has a start and end date. Each project is realized by a team (a subset of company employees) of 3 to 5 people. A person is described by a unique identifier, name, and surname. One person can be a member of many teams. The implementation of the project is divided into tasks. A task has a subsequent number, duration (in hours), and goal (text describing what to do). A task can be assigned to at most one team member. A team member can have many tasks assigned."

I'm considering two approaches. I would appreciate it if someone could tell me if one of them is correct or propose another solution. (Is there a case in which a class would have no attributes)?

I'm helping a friend choose a laptop for university and we’re not 100% sure 🤔

She’s starting a marketing degree next year and needs a laptop. Her use case won’t be very demanding: mostly office work, browsing, assignments, and some light multitasking.

She’s considering the MacBook Neo because she likes that it’s small, lightweight, and has good battery life. From what we’ve seen, it should be smooth enough for this kind of basic usage.

That said, we’re aware of some limitations:

• Few ports
• Limited storage (although she could rely on cloud/external drives)
• 8GB RAM with no upgrade option

In theory, it seems like it should be fine for basic use and very portable.

Does anyone here own it or have experience with it?
Would you recommend it for a marketing student, or is it better to go for something like a MacBook Air or a Windows laptop?

Any advice or experiences would be really appreciated 🙏

Estoy ayudando a una amiga a elegir portátil para la uni (marketing) y tenemos dudas.

El año que viene empieza el grado en marketing y quiere comprarse un portátil. No va a hacer nada demasiado exigente: ofimática, navegación, trabajos, algo de multitarea básica, etc.

Está pensando en el MacBook Neo, sobre todo porque le gusta que es pequeño, ligero y con buena batería. Además, por lo que hemos visto, debería ir bastante fluido para este tipo de uso. Por lo que entiendo, está bastante enfocado a estudiantes y tareas no muy pesadas ().

Eso sí, sabemos que tiene algunas limitaciones:

• YPocos puertos
• Almacenamiento algo justo (aunque podría usar nube o discos externos)
• Solo 8GB de RAM sin opción de ampliación

Aun así, en teoría cumple bien para uso básico y es bastante portátil.

¿Alguien lo tiene o lo ha probado?
¿Lo recomendaríais para una carrera como marketing o mejor ir a otra opción tipo MacBook Air o Windows?

Cualquier experiencia o consejo se agradece.
