If you're comparing Rust favorably to JavaScript, and then concluding it's the right tool, I think you need more data points.

- woodruffw 4y agoI take your comment to be a jab at JS, which I’m not a particular fan of, but I don’t think it holds much water: the GP’s example is nearly identical in Ruby and Python as well, and would have the same problem in those languages.
- jvanderbot 4y agoAnother interpretation would be that Rust and JS cannot possibly cover all or even most programming domains, so there must be other languages out there that need to be in the ring for any given application.
