Oof, I've seen this at a previous job - lots of microservices written in the newest/most dominant language of the time: Scala, Java, .Net, Python, Javascript, Coffeescript (!), TypeScript and Go services all powering one system.

Clearly the answer is to rewrite them all in Rust. /s
They are still trying to compile the rustc because the new rust project won't accept the old compiler. /s

(i'm only half joking after seeing an error message like: you have rustc version 1.58.0, you need at least 1.58.1)

Surprisingly I don't think there was any Rust - they seemed to have settled on TypeScript.
