> What are your thoughts on languages like Haskell? I'm planning learn some functional language this year. There is a lot of Haskell developers in Rust community who came for performance and some ties to functional programming. I've just seen presentation about patterns in functional languages (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8I19uA-wGY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8I19uA-wGY - strongly recommended) and I like it so far. Getting hardware mechanics out of your way is amazing boost for productivity (I know that from using python). > dismissing the value of languages like C is the worse of the two mistakes to make I have Rust now for things that must be fast and low-level, so I do not need C anymore. It served us well, but a lot has changed since it was invented.
