But I find hard to program without functional composition as well. > Rust people: do you use Rust for (nearly) everything? i.e. does it feel very general purpose, or if you are doing something that will be entirely network I/O bound anyway do you reach for something else? General purpose language != efficient for all the use cases. I do a considerable amount of hobby programming in Rust, but I think it's a niche language. I think it's vastly most efficient to use other language in the very large majority of the use cases - there are plenty of modern languages the are good enough and don't have such a high overhead (ie. manual memory management). Nonetheless I've found that with a couple of years of experience (likely less than half, if programming professionally), developing with Rust is considerably simpler than one would imagine.
