I'm starting to think that maybe #golang, and not #rustlang, is for me. I really appreciate the philosophy that the language shall be small and simple.
Is there any "standard" subset of Rust that is kind of accepted by the community? I.e. if I basically want C with borrow checking and Rust compatible syntax?
At work, I'm struggling with the complexity and over-engineering that #cpp invites, and I want to move away from that. Unfortunately, Rust also seems to encourage that kind of practice.
