       @drequivalent @uint8_t Go is rather easy to learn, and will be boring after a while because there's the point where you're just done. Sure, there's more libraries and cool stuff to build, but the language itself is really easy.I'm personally still procrastinating learning rust though and have been programming go professionally for years now, so I may be biased. (But go really is easy to learn)

       @ln @uint8_t That's kinda my point. Both languages share a lot of similarities. They both are compiled but memory-safe (no segfaults, etc), both are meant for multithreading, both can compile into libraries, both ditch classes for structs, the list goes on.Rust, however is a lot more powerful, and it doesn't have to bake-in the huge runtime into everything it compiles (it doesn't have one), it doesn't need expensive garbage collection (there's no garbage to be collected in the first place), it's always faster than Go, and it's all around awesome.Go, however, has a huge advantage that can defeat everything Rust has to offer - you can learn it fast, and start hacking right away, and for the most tasks it will be more than sufficient, really. It's kinda like Python in that regard.So, I'm kinda stuck between Rust's "Mastery and Excellence" and Go's "Here and Now" approaches.
