I can answer just for myself.
I don't like to spend time on irrelevant things like "why the binary does not link", "in which shared library this undefined symbol is located" or "how to parse XML", or even plain "why it does not work".
With Go I _usually_ have a predictable process of writing a program, when simple things are simple and complex things are reachable. It makes me happy.
- jwbaker 15y agoIsn't that just because parsing XML in Go is difficult bordering on impossible? Or are you saying there's some other language that forces you to think about XML when you don't want to?
- krasin 15y agoParsing XML in Go is easy: https://gist.github.com/2234273 https://gist.github.com/2234273 My point was that with Go, I have consistently predictable experience. Its standard library is still not the most powerful across the Zoo, but if it has support of something, I know that I can use it w/o a book "libxml2 for dummies".
