Yeah, I heard about that. Thing is, I talked to him last sem and he wasn't sure that Go would be allowed at that point, so I decided to wait a sem. Have you heard anything from the people doing it in Go this time? Its awesome to have the opportunity to use it, but I think it would throw people off for a the first 1-2 weeks while they were getting used to it which might put them at a disadvantage relative to the class. Andersen said something similar too - http://da-data.blogspot.com/2013/02/teaching-distributed-systems-in-go.html http://da-data.blogspot.com/2013/02/teaching-distributed-sys...
- epenn 14y agoI've heard good things so far. I know a couple groups using it and their impressions pretty much echo what you said. They felt a bit behind during project 1 while they tried to learn the new language, but are starting to feel more comfortable with it now (we're a week into project 2 currently).
