Framework Fatigue: The Real Reason Developers Get Angry About New Tech
(raed.dev)
For a while, it felt like every day, a new JavaScript framework was announced. From Svelte stealing React’s thunder to Solid promising revolutionary performance, and Qwik reimagining how web apps load - all of these promise to be blazing fast and better than anything that came before.

Great things about Rust that aren't just performance
(ntietz.com)
Nearly every line of code I write for fun is in Rust. It's not because I need great performance, though that's a nice benefit. I write a lot of Rust because it's a joy to write code in. There is so much else to love about Rust beyond going fast without segfaults.

This isn’t just unproductive, it’s outright toxic.

Skeptical of rewriting JavaScript tools in "faster" languages
(nolanlawson.com)
I’ve written a lot of JavaScript. I like JavaScript. And more importantly, I’ve built up a set of skills in understanding, optimizing, and debugging JavaScript that I’m reluctant to give up on.

We spent 7 months building a Kubernetes based platform to replace Heroku for our SaaS product at mynewsdesk.com. **The results were a 90% reduction in costs and a 30% improvement in performance.** We also significantly improved developer experience with reduced deploy times and faster / more accessible tooling.
