This is one giant antipattern. I hope people don’t really use this.

It does too much. Configuration? Running apps remotely? This is a big cluster of miscellaneous helper tools glued into a ball called a library. I don’t understand how it’s useful.




It can be a good fit for quick throwaway projects, typically found in various research groups. Python itself is a giant antipattern for anything more ambitious I would say. Go provides far more rigor and stable foundations. Rust is also there for systems programming.


Make no mistake. In terms of abstractions.. rust is a higher level language then golang. You have more safety features of a higher level language in rust than you have in golang and you get it at zero cost. The exception is concurrency primitives which is golangs only saving grace.


That’s a very interesting opinion for sure.
