Thanks for the clarification. I think those are fair points.

BTW, do you think Rust would be a good replacement to Ruby for companies trying create an MVP? Or do you think Go and Rust are more for the optimization/scaling phase?




Speaking for Ruby/PHP web apps. Go is not quite as fast as Rust, but much easier to pickup since it has a simple syntax and manages memory for you. I would save Rust (or C) for the optimization phase since finding developers is harder.

Go is so good that huge companies like sendgrid, cloudflare and google never move past it. Rust is great for hardware and embedded devices where memory management really, really counts.
