  "And really, that’s the most important thing you can ask of a leader, that they set the right north star."

  That's an interesting way to see it . I've heard[1] Rust called "Correctness, Performance, DX, in that order" and I think it would be nice to contrast this with other programming languages.

  For example Zig could be "Performance, Correctness, DX". Only a small difference, but the consequences are huge.

  [1] I think I have this from Steve Klabnik, but I don't remember the exact words.
