> You're starting to tell people what they "should" do and it's starting to smell of sour grapes because you didn't particularly like Rust nor achieved a productive level of familiarity. Which makes you a poor candidate for evaluating the strengths/weaknesses of Rust beyond your tastes.

I wrote a working Macho-o Parser in rust and I plan on continuing the symbolic execution engine I started in rust, so I'm not a complete beginner to rust. Also there is such a thing as the best tool for the job. And for web services I don't think rust is that tool of choice.

I understand why rust exist and it makes sense, a safe low level systems programing language. What I don't get is why one would use rust for the vast majority of microservices. There are easier more productive tools available.

So you acknowledge that there are better tools for building microservices but your defense for using rust is "so what"? I mean that's fine for personal projects but when your putting things in production you should be using the best tools available.

Lol, so only positive opinions of rust are allowed here? But seriously, steveklabnik responded to one of my post with so much useful and awesome information that your, I need to leave post is ridiculous.

I am with you there, like Rust, but in what concerns microservices I would always pick a GC language with JIT/AOT.

The language is a tiny piece of the end-to-end development experience.

Now, for playing around on a ESP32? C++ or Rust (when available).
