If you know what you're doing it can be okfast. But in most of my use cases speed is not that relevant ( I am not losing clients because my website is taking a day to load). Plus the simplicity means that it is (I mean not mine but it could be) more legible and the method therefore more transparent.
Started on C, then moved to Java. Then I explored C++, Python and have recently started to work in Angular (and Typescript). Even though I kinda hate java, it feels like home.
Sometimes I think that python would be my favorite if I just spend enough time on that though.
I don't get it. It's the slowest in the club, looks kinda ugly to me and dependency management is awkward. And then people do stuff like Asciidoctor in it. I want to imagine what Asciidoctor in Rust/Go would be like.
