Well, for being someone from Go community and commenting in a Rust thread, your feeling that I misinterpreted the statement is legit. But lets be honest, there

  > But lets be honest, there are some attitude somewhere in the original comment I really don't think there was. I think he was trying to communicate how serious they are in hitting their 6 week release timeline, and that marketing a release by matching some other current event (such as a Go release with a specific version) is not important to them when compared to this. The only attitude I think should be inferred from this is that they really want to hit their release schedule. > and I admire him being open I think his apology was for being unclear, not for disparaging another language. I think this is just some of the left over feeling you have from the original perceived sentiment of the comment. It can be hard to shake the feeling of an initial reaction, even if you've logically processed away much of the original reason for that feeling. It probably doesn't help that there's been some anti-Go sentiment going around HN lately, but that doesn't mean that was his intention.
