With Rust meanwhile, I have to decide which of thousands of third-party Rust crates is sufficiently en-vogue and well maintained. Most of my coding work is backend stuff that calls a lot of HTTP APIs, parses a lot of JSON and does a lot of crypto. All that is ready-to-go "out of the box" with Go stdlib and on top of that is faster to get to production in Go than in Rust. I don't need or want Rust's complexity. As I said I have enough going on at $work...
