Then Go should be in the list too. In fact any language that's trending is automatically in that list.
The only languages that don't attract prima donnas are the "not hip" ones like Java, C++, C#, Perl, etc.
- geodel 10y agoNot really. Considering Go does not offer features that PL theory enthusiasts love, it remains a boring language.
- blub 10y agoI don't think it's about features, but rather a combination of fashion, chance and some other key element (such as author, supporting company, etc) that in addition to the technical merits lead to a piece of technology becoming cool and liked. Interestingly Go programmers have turned lack of features into a definining feature in itself and are proud of it. If you want to be oart of the in crowd you have to use that signal.
