Rust vs. Go in 2023

*nod* Rust's "make costs explicit" design does have a bit of a problem with encouraging premature optimization where something like Python would encourage sloppiness.

I'll take obvious jank over hidden jank any day personally.

I agree... you need discipline either way. It's just easier to wind up not realizing that you don't need to spend so much time on up-front optimization with Rust to produce a perfectly serviceable program. (Especially if you haven't internalized the whole "fearless refactoring" angle.)

We'd probably be good on a team together. Nice to see like like-minded people in here.
