> it’s about high performance computing. And zero runtime cost abstractions. And having a non-profit to shepherd the project (and thereby having a good chance that you may influence the project). And strong typesafety. And design by committee (see how async-await was "agreed" upon). Also Rust is called a multi-paradigm prog lang in the article: I dont think so. Scala is. Rust is not. It brings as much FP features into the language without sacrificing its core paradigm: an imperative systems language.
