How to structure a 90-day learning roadmap for Rust if you already know TypeScript/Python

The biggest mistake people make coming from garbage-collected languages is trying to write linked lists or cyclic graphs in week 1. Focus first on ownership, borrowing, and lifetimes. Read 'Rust Book' chapters 1-8, then immediately build a CLI tool (e.g. a simple markdown parser or directory tree visualizer). Who else is currently learning Rust? Let's pair up!

Case StudyPosted by @Ananya K.·11/8/2026

Why we migrated our Next.js App Router API routes to connection-pooled MySQL and saved 60% latency

When scaling concurrent users on serverless endpoints, opening fresh database connections on every serverless lambda invocation quickly hits the max_connections limit. We implemented a singleton pool with 10 connection limits and keepAlive=true. Average query times dropped from 180ms to 8ms. If anyone is running into connection exhaustion with MySQL2 or Prisma on Vercel, feel free to ask questions here!
