As a Haskell & Erlang person who currently uses Rust as my primary language at work: > do you do functional programming, and is Rust a better (with all the subjectivity that word implies) language than Go? Yes, yes. Obviously the Rust ecosystem has fewer mature libraries, but its type system and error handling make Go look like a toy. Go can be okay for small one-off tools, but its safety guarantees are not far ahead of scripting languages and I think it should be considered as such.
