Don't let the Nim folks fool you. Nim isn't targeting the same space as Rust. It's garbage collected.
Nim could see success in challenging Python or Golang, but Rust is rather uniquely positioned to go after bare metal (C, C++), yet have the ergonomics one would expect from Java, Python, Go, etc.

Rust is going to eat everything.
