I am curious why you even care about this conversation if you don't use Go. I think OP has a point that perhaps could have been expressed more gracefully.

- yellowapple 7y agoMaybe this is a reason why this person doesn't use Go? That'd be good enough reason to care, I'd reckon.
- geezerjay 7y agoGoogle's blanket dismissal of any criticism of Go's GOPATH design screwup pushed people away from adopting Go.
- eternalban 7y agoBe serious.
- mcguire 7y agoI am interested in programming languages (and especially module systems), and Go is a neat case. Plus, I've been following the antics of the ex-Bell Labs team for years.
- eternalban 7y agoIn that case you possibly agree with my sentiment that Go 1.0 is 'World according to Pike' (with associated +/-). And note that I wasn't being snippy at you. Some of us have invested literally a decade in this at times infuriating language and are loathe to see it 'normalized' due to social pressure.
- mcguire 7y agoI would very much agree with that description. :-)
