Why is a systems language used for web applications, servers, command-line utilities and all sorts of libraries?

The article is about a “messenger bot” for example and nobody’s complaining that it’s wrong to write such a thing in Rust.

The reality is that Rust is competing with Java and Go and Python for many things and its poor ergonomics are hobbling it.
