I own Sonos and I program in Rust. Two interest points.

Rust is trying to get to the threshold where it's applicable in the workplace. (All but a few major companies use it.) Unlike Golang, it needs all the cheerleading it can get to push it over that hurdle.

I want to use Rust at work instead of Java.
