Go has very weak compiler and completely falls apart on anything but trivial code. If you care about reaching performance ceiling while staying with higher level language - use C#.
Good programmers know better than to confuse Go for a systems programming language.
- KingOfCoders 3y agoWould not use C#, been there, bought the T-shirt, too complicated. I love the simplicity of Go. "Good programmers know better than to confuse Go for a systems programming language." I'm only coding for 40y years now, there is still time for me to learn that wisdom I hope.
- stouset 3y agoGo was advertised as a systems programming language since day one. Then we went through a phase where Gophers started to redefine what a "systems programming language" is, so this could remain true. Now we're at the point where good programmers know that Go isn't one?
- pjmlp 3y agoThere is gccgo if you care for a good optimizer, unfortunely is stuck on Go 1.18 for ages.
- KingOfCoders 3y agoThanks, didn't know.
