If the goal was "Go is a language for Linux", fine. But that wasn't the goal. From the first release it was targeted to macOS, Windows and other platforms, but implemented in a way that didn't make any sense on those platforms.
- pjmlp 8y agoActually Go was implemented as OS X and Linux language initially. They left up to the community to build up Windows support. Certain packages are still not available on Windows, like plugins for example. Easy to find that out searching early gonuts posts.
- gok 8y agoOk I stand corrected; they only botched it on 50% of their initial targets :)
