I wasn't planning to turn this into a language flame war, so I'm not going to give details. Let's just say that the designers of Rust and Go have prioritized very different feature sets when designing their type systems. If you develop in Rust, it's typically because you want to write "fearless code", i.e. attach sophisticated invariants to types to avoid safety issues later in development/coming from client code. If you develop in Go, it's typically because you want "productivity", i.e. reach quickly a point where you code can run and you can start testing it. As usual, it's a tradeoff. For most tasks, I happen to click better with the former. YMMV
