> Not to be That Guy, but you should give Rust a try if you haven't yet. You may not like it, but it will make writing that style of code feel more like Python, often.

I've never used Rust but I was a (low-confidence) big fan the moment I saw it, and everything I've seen since has only strengthened this impression. I don't exactly _love_ C++ and all its janky weirdness, and Rust seems like it improves ergonomics while allowing even more powerful control over memory and type safety.

Unfortunately, there are a couple of computer science subspecialties that I prioritize when looking for roles, so I lose some degrees of freedom in the ability to pick jobs or side projects that would expose me to Rust.
