Personnel

gollark: Yes, but lots of them don't.
gollark: It is nice that Rust actually has tagged unions, which somehow basically all other languages missed out on implementing.
gollark: I don't mind the syntax, I just generally don't seem as productive in it as in other stuff. Also, the compiler is quite slow.
gollark: I don't like C(++) etc enough to use them at all, and haven't really tried using Nim for that sort of thing.
gollark: I'm also dissatisfied with basically every programming language ever in slightly different ways, yes.
