What a condescending comment in response of someone trying to help

  s/trying to help/trying to be right/g The linked comment was about an implementation of partition with the specific problem of allocating too many slices in the opinion of the author. It was not about lo in general, did not help or shared any performance numbers E.g. for a size of a usual lists of <50 elements with filter() or the use case of three chunks, that people use when writing web applications (which I do, I don't write a database in Go - something the author could have found out my asking instead of assuming).

    There's no ergonomic loss to using the faster approach. It's just cargo culting patterns from other languages even though they're less accessible and less performant in Go. The problem with your comments isn't the context for what you're doing, it's the "40y, scaled and sold" bullshit. That's bragging, not an argument nor context. Or as a senior colleague used to remind me, "shipping is easy if you're willing to ship shit." I'm not here to discuss shipping.

      "shipping is easy if you're willing to ship shit." What a nasty comment.
