What would a Pythonista gain from becoming a Rustacean other than semicolons and brackets? In this talk I'll share the learnings and achievements I got by adding the Rust programming language into my Python life. Illustrating a real story now in production at scale, I'll walk you through all the pains and joys of this unexpected journey which changed me more than I anticipated. Proposed agenda: - Project introduction - Motivations of selecting this project to learn Rust - Tales of a Pythonista learning Rust - Results, numbers and production graphs - How Rust influences my daily Python - Was it worth it? Should you do it too?
