I've been noticing that many new projects that would have been written in Python or Node a year ago are starting to be written in Go, Rust, etc.
Theory: people realized there’s little benefit to Python for agents. As Zep wrote, an “agent is a long-running, concurrent, I/O-bound process that spends most of its time waiting on a model, a tool, or a human[1]” — not a particular strength of Python.
I'm wondering if you'd considered Go (or others—Go’s just my fav ) before landing on Node, and more broadly whether you've noticed a similar pattern?
