Re:Has the market spoken? Time to pick up Golang and Rust? by jochem9 on Friday November 08, 2024 @01:51AM (#42084768)
Same. Python has a certain elegance when writing it, but the lack of static typing, a nightmare for dependency management (recently had to do a change in Python and spend about 80% of my time getting the dev env en dependencies right) and runtime compilation (slow and you'll error in production) have put me firmly on the Go train.

I do want to do Rust in production too. I'm dreaming of moving data engineers to a staticly typed language (crazy to transform data with dynamic typing) and Rust with Polars seems like a great match. The learning curve is steep though.
