I've been looking at Rust and Go and I understand their point. Rust is amazing but can be really challenging. It's easy to start building something, then followed by a long period of lots of frustration and wondering if I can ever get it to work, then once it finally works it's usually very solid.
Skill issue for sure, I would love to spend more time learning and practicing, but that's not always great when you need to get stuff done.
In Go it is really easy to just build the things I need, fast enough, safe enough. I expect it's somewhat the reverse of Rust, very productive and easy until it's not, but it will take you quite far! It's maybe more like Python, but with decent types, and a lot faster.
I think both are pretty awesome for different purposes, I would also expect that once you get to a decent level of Rust experience it probably gets a lot more productive, but it takes a while to get there.
