Job? I'd say Go
Command line tools with complex logic for fun and community support? Rust
Julia? Julia.
- Qworg 4y agoMinor quibble, but Rust engineers are in wildly high demand - even beyond normal engineering levels. Many of the majors are hiring a ton for rebuilding backend stacks and crypto still wants as many as it can get as well.
- konart 4y agoWell, one obviously should evaluate local market (or the global market if this is a valid option) for jobs offerings. I should've been more careful about this in my statement :)
- nicoburns 4y ago> Job? I'd say Go If you want to work in the learned language, then sure. But if you just want to increase your general employability then Rust is probably a better bet. You'll learn more, and it will make you a better engineer in every language you use. My JavaScript has been greatly improved by learning Rust.
- konart 4y ago> If you want to work in the learned language That's what I mean, yes. Obviously you should broaden your horizons to learn or discover something new and improve your skill in a general way.
