gollark: Skynet was written in Rust some years back and it works perfectly with essentially zero CPU use and no maintenence.
gollark: I mean, it's excellent if I need something to be really fast or really reliable, but also very slow and annoying to write in.
gollark: I don't actually feel very productive in Rust.
gollark: osamarks.net actually uses that Node/COBOL bridge to run certain Discord bots.
gollark: All tools above some minimum standard technically *work*. Lots are *very bad*.
