I wonder why Delphi was more "popular" than Go-lang?
I wish Borland Pascal had been more popular in the 90s. It's interesting to think how Java would have fared if there was another viable alternative to the clearly inadequate C++ language. Of course, Borland would have had to NOT try to compete with MS Office, and have been content to be like JetBrains is now - provide a best in class IDE for open source languages, assuming they open sourced the Pascal/Delphi command line compiler.
