Python is good because it works across different platforms. It has a lot of example code and libraries to use.

Rust is still a new language not as many people using it as Python does. I remember a startup tried to write a haunted house video game in Rust but ran out of money because Rust developers are rare and want a lot of money to work. If it was Java or C++ based they could have hired cheaper programmers and then sold it to raise money for a Rust remake.

Do you happen to remember what that startup's name was? I've never heard this story.

The startup name was never given. They posted on HN asking why they couldn't get their game finished in Rust and why Rust developers wanted more money than other developers. I don't have the link and HN is hard to search to find it. But I remembered it.
