Go vs. Rust? Choose Go
This&#x27;ll be a fun comment section.<p>Maybe Go isn&#x27;t so simply the answer, but the spread of &quot;write everything in Rust&quot; or &quot;Rust is the salvation of software&quot; <i>is</i> crazy. It&#x27;s got huge advantages but it&#x27;s really a very difficult language for what it does. 80% of software (nonsense percentage) that gets targeted to Rust would actually be better in another language. Rust&#x27;s focus is on (for most devs and software) the wrong things.<p>It&#x27;s too bad something like a better OCaml or Nim weren&#x27;t what people were going nuts rewriting stuff in but they don&#x27;t have the mindshare. Rust evangelism is like using a very advanced hammer to do everything. We&#x27;ve got screwdrivers, chisels, and multitools, yall, use them! Is Rust actually the right tool for the job? As programmers we do tend to seek the one true language which doesn&#x27;t really exist.
