Ah yes, the Go mantra. Make your code as dumb and long as possible.

Ah yes, the Go mantra. Make your code as dumb and long as possible.
- gizzlon 7y agoCompared to what? I used to do scripting languages and Go code is usually more verbose. Not much more verbose though. Think it's mostly the static typing. While keeping things short is a goal, it's not the only goal..
- dgb23 7y agoWriting dumb code is often a good thing. Dumb code still solves your problem and can be structured well to keep it readable and maintainable. I feel like code even should be dumb most of the time and only clever when needed. The hard part is to figure out when to be clever.
