You hit the nail on the head, at least for me. I've found Go to be the right sweet spot between efficiency and productivity. I can't get anything done in Rust.

- galangalalgol 4y agoI like the thick stdlib in go, but it feels a lot slower even than java. The thin stdlib and giant dependency trees is my primary complaint with rust. I like most of the syntax, but async is not my threading style, I mostly use fine grained threads like rayon provides. I'm currently more excited about julia though. Same dependency hell, but super fast and flexible, and the code looks good.
- brabel 4y agoYou think Java and Go are slow but like Julia? It takes 2 seconds just to fire up a Julia interpreter. Its runtime is extremely heavy.
- indeyets 4y agowell… you start it once and just use forever after that
- galangalalgol 4y agoThat is what I usually do. And you can supposedly precompile everything if you just want to deploy a service so restarts are short. I have not done that though.
