Plenty of people who love meat go to vegan restaurants, because they serve good food but without meat in the dishes. I have a bunch of language features I like but still use and enjoy languages that don’t have them because they’re still good at other things.
Go is kind of like a vegan restaurant that offers you iceberg lettuce and cherry tomatoes as the main course. It’s just not very good.
- bb88 2y agoIt's more like an aggro soylent of programming languages. It's functionally equivalent to other food intake products, but it will only ever have one flavor, and if you complain about it, they just tell you to drink more soylent because soylent is the One True Solution. Now contrast that to rust, where rust is more "We know you like python, but did you know python and rust taste even better together?"
