That seems unnecessarily harsh towards Go programmers in my opinion. Languages have different up and downsides and different areas where they shine.
There's plenty of people with a lot of programming experience writing Go, and whose taste might just have diverged a bit from the "mainstream". :)
- nine_k 7y agoYes; I stated so. This is a cultural clash; there is an ample demand for a language with explicitly and harshly limited expressiveness, to prevent the C++ problems from ever happening. Go also is a safe enough language so I'd take it over C any moment where possible.
- TurboHaskal 7y agoIt being harsh does not make it any less true. Go is self admittedly catering to the lowest common denominator of developers. And boy it works... I have to write a lot of Go myself. I detest it, and use it only because the industry dictates so.
