Go is odd in that people constantly complain about what it cannot do or does incorrectly, while having become one of the most prolific languages at the same time.
- stouset 4y agoC++ is wildly prolific, and yet it is under constant criticism. Most people in my experience (even C++ proponents) would agree that much of that criticism is reasonable, even if there's a subset of C++ that can be carefully used to create reliable software. Go is odd in that its proponents seem to flatly deny any of the very reasonable criticisms levied against it. And they continue to do so right up until the moment that the language authors finally address them.
