No doubt. I strongly believe go is a major advancement over c/c++ for routine work and an improvement over python.
There are, however major footguns, I find it hard to read other people's, or even my own code (parsing nested if conditionals is no fun when you're debugging under duress), and CSP is really just.... Not the best concurrency paradigm.
- otabdeveloper4 7y agoThere's no such thing as "C/C++".
- dnautics 7y agoSorry c/c++ family. Explicit is better than implicit. Pardon me. C was my second real language after Pascal and c++ came immediately after that in a 6 month timespan, so for my underperforming and scelerotic brain (aside from an ld_preload shim I wrote two years ago haven't touched them since the aughts) they are "together" in my brain. Curly braces and all that.
- solarkraft 7y agoI fully disagree. I find Go very nice to read.
