It absolutely would be, if our entire stack wasn't in Go.
One was a JS guru who literally threatened 'I can walk across the street and get another job, you know.' And we let him, and both of us are happier for it.
So I do agree, don't join a team writing a language you hate.
- pharmakom 5y agoI think I would have left too. Go has its advantages to be sure, but if you can write highly expressive functional code in a language like JS, Go is like wading through a swamp.
- physicles 5y agoAgreed. We're 100% Go in our back end, and in the process of hiring. We literally wrote in the job posting, "If you don't want to write Go, this job is not for you."
