> What happened, have manners gone out of style? Manners are for engagement between people. Forum-going is a solitary activity. Maybe there is a human out there twisting nobs and pulling levers to make the software work, but if so, that's just an implementation detail hidden from the user. If that were replaced with software, I wouldn't notice, or care. > what exactly fault do you find with my original comment: that Go isn't really a player in scientific computing. The original contextual comment, not first comment ever written... > People aren't going to heavily invest in building scientific programming libs interop with Go They aren't going to invest anyway, as the vast majority of scientific computing tasks are script in nature. Go is decidedly not a scripting language. It isn't trying to be, and doesn't want to be. There were already a number of good languages in the scripting space before Go came along. This is like lamenting that wrenches aren't winning the race in nail driving dominance. Who cares?
