I know it's fun to hate on Uber here, and there are plenty of reasons to do so. But this is surprising to me. I was at one of the Uber tech meetups in NYC last year or maybe a year and a half ago, and it seemed like a total circus. The guy who was championing golang was up there talking about how cool go is and that they were rewriting all their microservices in it just because go is cool. He also talked about how many problems it had caused them and all that fun stuff. I left that meetup thinking two things: 1. Who the fuck breaks stuff just to use a cool new language? 2. Good lord, I really don't ever want to work on this team. It's chaos.
