I don’t understand this template?
1. No matter your opinion on X:
2. Opinion Y is true about X!
If all you have are compliments about X: just go directly to (2). You’re not making a begrudging concession, after all.
- Nullabillity 3y agoOr the related fallacy, "X was designed to be good at Y, so clearly X is good at Y!" (or worse, "is the best way to do Y!").
- phplovesong 3y agoI basically mean: No matter if you dislike Go you cant argue with the fact that it is a good fit for larger teams collaborating on a big multi-year/multi-decade project.
- papichulo2023 3y agoWell... It kinda replaced Java for most cloud stuff except for Kafka.
- wsc981 3y agoI think the way it's meant to be read and understood is as follows: "There may (or may not) be many problems with Go, but building bigger projects is not one of those".
- stouset 3y agoThis is actually kind of funny because one of the classical arguments made by gophers eight or so years ago when I first started learning it was that golang's limited abstraction power makes the pain of large codebases obvious enough that teams are incentivized to keep projects small.
