  Rust lang. It's a difficult language to learn, but it is truly extraordinary and delivers on performance, reliability, productivity, correctness, expressiveness and it's a very good language for reasoning about. It's the kind of language where learning it changes your paradigms and makes you recognize the ways in which other languages are lacking. Thinking in terms of traits is a game changer. Once you use algebraic data types you never want to go back. Concrete error types! Bindings for all the things. Zero cost abstractions. Provably correct database queries with compile time checking (Diesel, SQLX). Type-state patterns combined with ownership allows you to create designs where you can assure correct usage. I recently wrote the most performant batching algorithm that exists, the design of which would literally not be possible in any other language, but because of ownership semantics and lifetimes I was able to ensure correct usage in order to uphold all the contracts necessary as to prevent UB. Feel free to check it out and benchmark it yourself if you'd like.
