He's picking a bunch of problems C is really good at and then roughly, fairly mechanically translating to Go.
I don't think he's trolling, but I do think he's playing to C's strengths and Go's weaknesses, possibly by accident.
- cantankerous 14y agoI agree. I don't see anything wrong what he did, but somebody should offer to submit counterpoints that better emphasize what Go is able to do.
- jlgreco 14y agoI think many counterpoints should be fairly obvious. Anything from "return a return value and an error code from a function" (trivial in both, way nicer in Go though) to "write a webserver from scratch. Which did you just schedule more time for?"
- ternaryoperator 14y agoOr anything that needed to be run in parallel.
