Yeah my bet was that they decided on the language first then built the tooling afterwards. Rust person was probably saying the same thing as it was happening...

Yeah my bet was that they decided on the language first then built the tooling afterwards. Rust person was probably saying the same thing as it was happening... Rust can be really daunting to look at, and if you compare the rust book to the go language tour, the easiest one to learn is pretty clear -- I get the feeling they won't even regret the choice because the things rust protects you from go sidesteps by giving you slow-but-safe-and-restrictive channels. Go's data race detector also is probably gonna be good-enough for a long time.
