I'm personally a big fan of (especially) the most recent builds of Python 3, but lately I've been interested in learning Go or Rust just because there's a few things I really like about them both vs some other languages I've looked at.
So, seein' that you've coded in both Go and Rust apparently, my question to you is: Which do you prefer of the two (and why)? I personally lean a bit toward Go, but I haven't learned enough of either to decide absolutely which of the two I should learn first.
I think it is better to not _decide_ which one to learn. They both have their perks and quirks. If you can, I’d recommend to dip your toes on both. For network services, Go feels super nice because of the high quality libraries in its ecosystem. I feel like it is better Java.
Rust on the hand, feels like a better C++... with a steep learning curve, and useful when you can/need to get something correct/efficient/safe at the cost of increased developer time and cognitive load.
Nice. Thank you for the info. Do they both have pretty good GUI toolkit support available? I currently use PyQt5 in Python, but I'm not totally against GTK if that's what is easier for Go or Rust. Still think I kinda feel like Go's the one of the two I'm prolly gonna learn first, although you've got me leanin' hard toward also learning Rust in addition to Go.
