A lot of people I know are bailing on .net because it doesn’t live up to the promises. Everyone else gets the cool stuff first, the vendor that owns it is a dick and there has been so much schizophrenia over the last few years that it’s a business risk adopting it in case you have to throw your product under a bus again. Go is showing itself to be a good compromise especially with the simplified nature of deployment and runtime stuff. It’s like a safer, higher level C, with a decent runtime library. That has so much mileage. I’ve learned one thing as well over the last 15 years of using .net as well. An IDE is a monolithic brain damager. If you have to do something outside the scope of it, you’re shot. Give me an extensible text editor and shell.
