> Why Rust?

Whenever Go is mentioned, Rust has to be mentioned somewhere in that same thread. And vice versa. It's practically law.

Perhaps a good indication that the debates tend to be more fashion-driven then about technical points (when the discussion is about new languages itself, that is of course reasonable though).



Right. I think the closest languages to Go, regarding respective niches or overall philosophies, are Java and Oberon. Yet nobody ever compares them.
