the whole blog post is lashing out at something. You reap what you sow. There's no "these are the tradeoffs, and this is why I disagree with those tradeoffs"; every argument goes like this:
- I have an expectation
- that expectation is informed by my priors, not by Go
- Go didn't meet my expectations
- even though Go never made or promised to meet those expectation, I'm going to be mad that it didn't do something that I wanted that was never promised
the whole article is structured like "Go wants me to think in a different way than I already think and I refuse to think in a new way".
- matthewmacleod 9y agoI don't think that's fair. More – "Go suggested I think in a different way, then I did it and it still wasn't good like it was advertised, and now I'm going"
- emperorcezar 9y agoThat's not it at all. He attacked your chosen tribe, now you're responding with personal attacks. The correct response would be, "I didn't mean to personally attack him, what I meant was X" Go is a language, attacking Go is not justification for you to attack the author. Replace Go with a rant about Ford trucks and you'll see how silly you are being.
