I know this is not going to make me an expert in Rust. That'll probably take 10 years. But this is just the kind of thing I was looking for to get started with Rust. Thanks for sharing it here.
If becoming an expert in Rust had to take 10 years, that would mean there are currently not a single Rust expert in the world
half an hour to learn Rust, the other half to wait for compilation.

This is, more or less, how I learned Rust circa 2015 (might have been a couple years later). I quickly started to write programs like I would have in C but got completely thwarted by the borrow checker because I wanted pointers everywhere. This made me throw my hands up and leave for other languages. However, 8 years later I did eventually come to love rust after learning the One Weird Trick of using indices instead…
Having seen that kind of opinion stated elsewhere, it seems what most people would like is rust minus borrowing, and I feel I would get behind that too.

Thanks for pointing that out. As an utter newbie to Rust, I can't guess whether or not the tutorial has become dated.

And has it?
