A sideways grammar question: shouldn't the title be "Things Rob Pike attributes Go's success to"?
- unlinked_dll 7y agoIn the words of Jack O'Neil, how dare you end a sentence in a preposition?
- gpvos 7y ago"Things to which Rob Pike attributes Go's success", whatevs. My point is that the direction of attribution according to the title is the other way around from that in the article.
- pmoriarty 7y agoI'd have written it as: "Reasons for Go's success, according to Rob Pike" Or even "Rob Pike on the reasons for Go's success"
- gpvos 7y agoNote that the original title was "Things Rob Pike attributes to Go's success".
