Hey buss, thanks for stopping by.
How do you feel about the distinction between Google and Go? It sometimes feels like they're joined at the hip, something which historically had made people queasy (Java and Oracle, .NET and Microsoft, etc). Though Go is a project which came from Google, I personally feel that it better serves the interests of the Go community to treat them separately. Google receives special treatment from Go - the announcement that AWS Lambda would support Go did not receive similar fanfare on golang.org.
Side note: there is some activity on the Go blog which is more mutual cooperation and less Google hivemind:
https://blog.golang.org/go-cloud https://blog.golang.org/go-cloud
But I still wonder why this stuff belongs here.

- justinclift 8y agoAgreed. To even submit content to the Go Blog requires a Google account. Ugh.
