They both suck getting new devs for

Also, just because it's part of Google doesn't make go better funded. Theyd probably be fine killing go.

Definitely easier to learn though :P

I'm willing to be Rust suck a ton more to hire devs. Since, as we both agree, Go is easy to learn. Any C#, PHP or Java dev can get going with Go in not time.

Rust has been around for over 10 years now. In the last five years the language hasn't changed much and has gotten better and better

I didn't like Rust one bit and gave up learning it. Go on the other hand is quite nice.
