Hmm.. empires have to fall before they are replaced right?
I do not think companies that have "replace Facebook", or something similar, as their mission statement are going to succeed. You have to find what makes your group great.
Julia:
- has reflection and speed
- awesome unique project https://fluxml.ai/Zygote.jl/
Rust:
- idiot proofed manual memory management.
- awesome unique (for now) project https://github.com/egraphs-good/egg
Rust's Egg, on the other hand, is probably going to be pushed back down by something in C or C++. There is nothing Rust can really do about this.
C++ still keeps a 0 overhead principle, and C is just simpler to work with. These are still languages taught to people in school, as a minor requirement for getting a degree. So there exist competent C/C++ programmers to do the job.
