The author does not mention this aspect, but simply having an included package manager puts rust far above C, C++, and Java in my opinion. This means that no one is fighting over how to manage dependencies, and it's actually possible to clone a repository and build it immediately every time. I haven't used it much, but I believe Go also does this well.
Go 1.11 (3 weeks old) does this and it's great! Go has had a long and storied history of package management. It's been very difficult to keep track of what was "in vogue" at any given time. But...

Go has had a long and storied history of package management. It's been very difficult to keep track of what was "in vogue" at any given time. But 1.11 has introduced a mechanism right into the go binary itself, and integrated into the "build" command as well.
When I was playing with new languages a few years ago, I really liked the built-in package managers for Rust (Cargo) and Elixir (Hex). I wish I was able to play with them more.
