The back and forth between writing tools in javascript and go or rust seems like it's in an unstable equilibrium right now:

- Go / Rust: It's easier than ever to rewrite existing tools in more performand languages

- Javascript: The v8 runtime for vercel or cloudflare workers is a much cheaper way to run certain workloads (e.g. conversational agents) than running a heavy weight vm. See just bash as another example project for taking advantage of this (https://github.com/vercel-labs/just-bash)

I'm curious to see what happens!
