+<h1>It's Not Rust VS Go</h1>

+include coworker conversation tidbits draft notes:
+<ul>
+  <li>These are two very different languages</li>
+  <li>These two languages are solving two very different problems</li>
+  <li>
+    What attracted me to Rust is the error handling and borrow checker. You
+    don't need a runtime and you don't need to worry about a variety of memory
+    pitfalls.
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    Rust is not just a systems-level language, and Go is not just a server-side
+    language.
+  </li>
+  <li>Rust isn't *really* about speed or performance. It's about safety.</li>
+  <li>Rust is just plainly a more powerful language.</li>
+  <li>
+    Go is for Python developers who need speed. Rust is for C++ developers who
+    need safety.
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    Rust has opt-in concurrent runtimes and opt-in garbage collection. These are
+    standard in Go, there's no getting out of them.
+  </li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>
+  Go has great concurrency. Goroutines are high-performance, parallel green
+  threads. Rust's concurrency is provably-correct.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  Why is the immediate question when someone says they wrote something in Go,
+  "why not rust?". The inverse is true. When I tell a dev I wrote something in
+  Rust, the immediate response is "you should have used Go, it's better." This
+  is false.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  What does suck about Rust? The compiler is slow. It will probably always be a
+  degree of magnitude slower than another compiler for a similar target.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  It's not Rust VS Go, it's when to use Rust and when to use Go. And the number
+  one argument I get for why Go should be used is it's simpler and faster to
+  learn and work with. There's the answer! The answer is use whichever one works
+  best for you. There's no better or worse, or superiority. Redditors will say
+  otherwise.

+  Go vs Rust discussions are ridiculous. It should be more like: When to use Go.
