- flavoie 15y agoSeriously? Every time I heard someone mention Go, they linked it to google to make it sounds as big as possible.
- dagw 15y agoSeriously! When I first started hearing about Go, it was always in the context of Ken Thompson's new language (that he wrote while working at Google).
- burgerbrain 15y agoYes seriously. Ken Thompson's involvement in it is mentored, often exaggerated, in just about every introduction piece I see about it. And to be brutally honest, its the only reason I initially even gave it a glance.
