You have a team fluent in Ruby. You want to build a web application (backend) with a language that can give stronger guarantees about correctness and more confidence in refactoring but provides a more ergonomic experience than Go. What do you use?
Yes I’m obviously a huge Rust fan too but for this use case, at this point in time it doesn’t feel like an easy sell.

Well, if correctness and confidence in refactoring is the important point though, I _do_ see good chances, as many who do it have a great track record.

For those than learn it yes. For folks used to working with a language like Ruby it’s a huge leap. Don’t get me wrong though, I’m running a weekly Rust session at work and trying to help people make that leap.
