That's ok. Nothing wrong with disagreeing.
But it sounds like you don't like Go. As you say, it's heavily influenced by Rob's personal vision of how things should be done. Plan 9, unicode, refusal to complicate the parser etc. They're all decisions that have given Go its (IMO) unique feel. Without Rob we'd have a vastly different language, certainly.
- coldtea 14y ago>But it sounds like you don't like Go. Well, I like large parts of it though. From major stuff, like the implicit interfaces, the syntax for having methods on structs etc, the simple C like syntax, to minor stuff like the capital letter for exports and gofmt for one and only one formatting. And the promise (which is not yet a reality) of a fast, memory efficient, statically compiled language.
