Might as well pick another language for your project if the current one has such shit standard libraries and you're "learning it on the job".

What's wrong with learning a new technology on the job?

Rust leaves a lot of improvements to its standard library to the community, so these improvements start off as separate libraries for faster iteration. The most recent example I remember is the hashbrown crate replacing the standard HashMap.

Does that mean the other language's standard library is better? That it has better third party libraries?
