Let's see. People hate Go, because it doesn't have generics and is missing dependency management.
So, people hate Dart, because it has support for generics and comes with a package manager?
- akerro 9y agoWhat? One of the reasons I love Go is it doesn't have generics, and I say that after 7 years spent in Java. People don't like to be forced to think differently because they're lazy and can't motivate themself to change the way they think and program. Go is different, Rust is different, people throw shit on Go because it's not Java or C# or Python, because it doesn't do what they would like it to do, not because it doesn't have generics. Sure, occasionally generics would be useful, but it's not a reason to hate a language.
- mswift42 9y agoI was trying to say that one shouldn't expect a sober, reasonable discussion about pro / cons of any programming language here. (As every discussion of anything Go has amply shown)
- ergo14 9y agoGolang looks nice, but my problem with it is that it seems to have nothing even resembling python's sqlalchemy. As I understand lack of generics is the reason for that?
- greenhouse_gas 9y agoDifferent people hate different things. And I don't think that anyone hates Dart because it has generics.
- mswift42 9y agoDart is a perfectly fine opensource programming language with a familiar syntax. Is it perfect? No, but it's good enough. There is nothing about Dart itself that would remotely justify the shit it gets heaped upon here.
