I do agree with this, but I'd argue the developer experience of nodejs with Typescript is far worse than that of rust/go

Agree. JS/TS is not a good environment for large software projects maintained over a long period of time. I'm not 100% convinced Rust is either, yet. cargo seems to be a dumpster fire. Build tools generate TB of mystery disk bloat. Obsession with async... hopefully these issues can be resolved.

No, it's not TB, it's a few GB for small projects, and tens of GB for large projects. Rarely does a project ever get over 30-40GB.

If you're going to want any amount of decent performance, you're going to have to deal with async. That's just the nature of IO bound applications.

VSCode disagrees with you. Its codebase is fascinating btw.
