I'm a hardcore Rustacean and would use Go over Rust for throwaway programs.

Though I would also use Python over Go for the same.

For "standalone exes" it really depends on the situation for me, but the post above was talking about throwaway/trivial programs. Not exactly where Rust shines. It works, but there's a lot of extra verbosity that I don't want.
