Are you using Go exclusively? All the jobs I see are Ruby + Go or Python + Go, which makes it pointless to learn Go if you don't care about Ruby or Python.

- joobus 10y agoI'd guess a lot of the X + Go jobs are porting from X to Go.
- psynapse 10y agoThis appears to be a common story. We ported a bunch of Python 2.7 to Go. The improvements in speed and memory consumption are outstanding. But we will be upgrading a large code-base from 2.7 to 3.x. For things like web data aggregation and parsing, it is hard to beat Python; the tooling in that space is really good. Definitely looking forward to some unicode pain alleviation from the rewrite.
- wtbob 10y ago> Are you using Go exclusively? Pretty much, in my career. Sure, i know plenty of languages, but my day job is slinking Go. I honestly don't want to program in Python any more. I never thought I'd say that, but it's true.
