All of that describes me. I'd add that I really like rust syntax. Ok, maybe not the syntax itself, but the semantics of the decorations. It trades a little up front pain, in the form of "cmon compiler, why do I need to tell you about this?!", to save a lot of pain later when revisiting mostly forgotten code, "oh i see, the return pointer is tied to the lifetime of argument 2, not the others" (as opposed to "WTF are the invariants here again? time to go hunting").
