- rhinoceraptor 7y agoIt's a tough sell to manglement considering there's almost no developers who know it, and it's not something you can ramp up on quickly like Java to C# or Ruby to Python.
- miohtama 7y agoI remember that in the past, early 00s, this was true for Python as well. One had to make an active effort to pick Python to be a tool for the job. I remember being in one of big government project pitch session and the project manager asked "What this Python language? Sounds like some toy." Times will change. However Rust sweet spot is system programming. Even though one could build e.g. websites with it, Rust loses its edge and becomes verbose, a too heavy hammer.
