> Are there? If someone's that ignorant of the language, I don't think I'd want to run something written by him … Yes, there are. I don't know any off the top of my head, but I see them all the time. So, just for fun, how about a little test: Step 1: Google 'notable applications written in golang' >> first result: http://www.infoworld.com/article/2843821/application-development/10-open-source-projects-google-go.html http://www.infoworld.com/article/2843821/application-develop... Step 2: Click through to github repos >> Result 9/10 of them won't work with go get. So, are Docker, Kubernetes and Etcd the kind of software you wouldn't want to run because their creators are too ignorant of the language?
