> I'm a weekend wannabe systems programmer (it's therapy after a long week of Web development) I love the fact that systems programming is becoming attractive again! > this is where Go users laugh that Rust attracted a Rubyist instead of a C++ user The members of the Rust community have very diverse backgrounds, so don't feel bad. We have systems programmers, pure FP folks, game devs, folks from the dynamic/web crowd... this is an encouraging thing! You will not be alone in coming from a dynamic language - some of our best contributors are also experienced Python, Ruby or Racket developers.
