As a web developer trying to move from PHP to other spaces (and do some native Linux GUI and console tools) should I choose Go or Rust?
Go seems to be better for webdev where Rust looks better on system side
@CobaltVelvet so it would be good to learn Rust and wait for it to mature?
@GeekDaddy yes. i wouldn't replace django by any rust crate for now, but i'm sure it will happen eventually. in the meantime, rust is already very functional in many other kinds of projects, and even web-related crates are looking promising. it'd maybe already be a good choice for an API or a very small or very large web project.
@GeekDaddy Use Rust. Fuck Google.
@starbreaker I don't want to put my anything into Google ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° )
@GeekDaddy Not even a secondhand Soviet ICBM?
@starbreaker they have offices all around the world one wouldn't be enough
@GeekDaddy So we'll aim for California. Maybe we can take out Facebook and Twitter, too.
@GeekDaddy the second sentence is basically it. Goroutines make async networking very easy and optimized, and go templates are quite powerful. Rust has crates that handle both but they're not as good or mature yet. But the language is better. I'd recommend using both depending mostly on if async networking is critical on the project
