I'd say rust is the new Java, not Go.

Complete with rewriting everything in the trendy memory safe quasi-portable language that is faster than (poorly written) C in your personal microbenchmarks.

    I work in enterprise, and java still reigns supreme. You see some (very limited) cracks coming from other jvm languages, but that's all. Nobody talks about Rust, rarely about C.

      Which enterprise?

      All the job postings I see are for C++ (Annoyingly. Fortran is better). Or Python obviously.

    Huh? Rust is nothing like Java. Java is a dynamic garbage-collected type-erased abomination with FizzBuzzEnterpriseEdition standard library.

    People have been rewriting software in better languages ever since there was more than one programming language. Eventually people will be rewriting Rust programs in GoombaLang or whatever. Isn't this what we want?
