Sounds like the project was a success:
>> Two weeks later, after my initial crash course introduction to Golang,
we had a brand new Octo service up and running.
>> you would also get 2x speedup.
The win wasn't the 2x speedup, it was not choking under heavy load.
- 69mlgsniperdad 10y agoSuccess..? I'm assuming this woman is a payed employee. She claims to have worked with nodejs for months on end, she attempts and fails many times to fix a bug, or possibly refactor a simple utility, blames the technology and decides she should spend her companies time and money learning a new language and rebuilding the service, slowly, with a brand new language. In other words: She couldn't solve the issue because she couldn't find a tutorial. The only tutorial she could find used Go, so she switched to Go. Brilliant success.
