For me Rust keeps the perfect balance between having all these awesome functional concepts but still be a language that works on real world state problems. Don’t get me wrong. I like Haskells Monads etc. But they try to hide the fact that we have state and all it’s wonderful side effects ;). Rust embraces state but with a clever system that feels always one step ahead of you. I also think a paradigm shift will happen when it comes to c. Yes it is used everywhere. Yes you get more developers now. Yes it has more libraries etc. But this was also true for the languages that where used before c. And I think Rust also has the chance to topple over JS in the web world. Lets see. I enjoy Rust at the moment very much and play around with it in all kinds of fields. It is already my number one language for command line utilities :)
