C++, with some Skill

/s

but seriously, I don't know any language with a good, C/Cpp-like Syntax (so not Rust), with a good compiler (again not Rust). So I'm sticking to Cpp.

You should check out zig, its compiler can even be used for c/c++. If you have time to listen to an interview, this developer voices interview on zig explains some of the advantages of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_oqWE9otaE&t=3970s

"Hey Linus, why haven't you rewritten the kernel in rust yet, you idiot?!?! Don't you realize you're missing the future, old man!?!?"

What's so bad about the Rust compiler? I know it's slow, but given all the analysis it's doing, it makes sense. And, from my own experience, setting correct optimization levels for dependencies along with a good linker makes incremental builds plenty fast.
