What the heck? My strong sense nowadays is that most junior-mid engineers would be excited to use Go and disappointed to touch Rails.
- 9nGQluzmnq3M 7y agoIt's about using the simplest thing that could possibly work, not about excitement. PHP is pathologically uncool, but it does work and it is fast for building new stuff. (God forbid you get stuck maintaining it though...)
- nine_k 7y agoThe problem is that Go makes you write about 5x as much as Rails would, and much of it by copy-pasting.
