Goodbye plenty, matured, well tested libraries and frameworks and big community. Hello go.
(Nothing against golang, just wanted to point out it's not that easy for every usecase).

- djstein 8y agoSo much this. No one is writing large production applications without some sort of imported library. Go simply has not been around long enough or had enough users to mature. For all of the pros Go has (not even mentioning the cons) they seem miniscule compared to what we give up switching to it. It has always sounded like the hot new fad and not a stable thing. Especially with daily articles like coaxing people into using it.
- majewsky 8y agoExactly! It will be many more years before big mature projects like Kubernetes, Docker or CockroachDB would consider switching to Go.
- therealmarv 8y agoThis are all sort of very close to system frameworks itself. I would never write something like that in Python. This is a good example for golang.
