Overly enthusiastic Rust evangelists can be annoying, but nowhere as much as C++ or C advocates defensively claiming memory safety isn't a big deal, and they are going to have it in the next version of the language anyway. I find my experience with Erlang has helped with the (considerable) learning curve for Rust, but I still prefer Go for most use-cases.
