> How? They solve completely different problems. Could you explain?
I don't disagree. The main crossover for me has been in productivity/expressiveness/safety. Can I easily write the programs I want to write with it or am I fighting the language and tooling constantly? Do I have high confidence in the correctness of my solution? Does the solution feel easy to maintain and extend? I haven't done enough with Rust to comment on how it fairs for larger projects, but my experiences with it for smaller problems has been very positive
