Another language with google-unfriendly name. :(
- coldtea 5y agoAnd we've seen how that hurt C, and Go...
- sscarduzio 5y agoC was named in pre internet times. So I understand. With go, they had to come up with a nickname for it (golang). So now the language has two names. As a result, the typical "go <something>" and "golang <something>" search results will always be potentially imprecise, and partial (unless everybody in the world stops calling it "go" in favour of "golang". The really incredible part of this story is that Go came from... Google.
- cies 5y ago>The really incredible part of this story is that Go came from... Google. Yeah. They leave SEO to other shops. I think they did not even intend to have this language released in public at first.
- EdwardDiego 5y agoI'm wondering how many overly aggressive web filters will block searches for "analang" until it gets whitelisted like "analysis". The good ol Scunthorpe problem.
- nfin 5y agoI would guess that similar to “Go/golang” for searches and tags “analang” would become a thing. But it means you are partly right
