While there is overlap between problems that might be sanely solved using python and problems that might be sanely solved using rust, the languages target very different problems.

You could write parts of a network server or parts of an OS kernel in python. You could write nearly the entirety of it in rust.

I would say that you need not use rust if python works well for you, but rust is probably better than C for implementing libraries that might be called from python.

Python is great, and getting better.

Just religiously use mypy. (Gradual typing!)

And profiling, and when something is reallly slow, bring out the Cython.

And when something is still not fast enough, well ...

Release the Rustacean!
