I don't know how many times I have to say "Rust and Go are not competing and are in totally different spaces" before it sinks in. This only works because Rust is a low-level design that does not rely on garbage collection; Go is a high-level design.

I don't think you read the thread properly. It's mentioned here, https://groups.google.com/d/msg/golang-nuts/8OJ6etdl6WY/0FKM..., that you could access cuda architecture with golang. And as mentioned here http://commandcenter.blogspot.it/2012/06/less-is-exponential..., golang was designed to replace c++. Any modern language which gives flexibility for both high and low level use would live, if you don't think so, go and advertise assembly. If rust gives cuda and http-server, one could easily design a project like this http://www.rescale.com.

Because Go pretends to be in the same space as Rust even though nobody actually uses it that way.

No, it doesn't. http://commandcenter.blogspot.it/2012/06/less-is-exponential...
