Gotcha, i've only bought the pragmatic programmers ebook so far. Past that i've really not done much.
I take it the go vein is more akin to: everything a framework(insert noun here) does for you it does to you?
I wholeheartedly agree, note i've used ruby for about 10 years aka: before rails, and there are times I want to strangle rails with a garrote for some of its choices in how it does things.
Ranting done, do you/anyone have any specific codebases I should look to for a good example of go programming methodology?
The scripts that will be replaced tend to be fairly heave with i/o and other stupid process manipulation, i.e. detect that some subprocess sigtermed etc... pretty boring stuff normally but I use threading rather heavily in ruby at the moment. So doing concurrency a bit more easily would be nice, especially since most of the things are just i/o derivatives of pack/unpack calls on things across many many devices. I've tested out celluloid with ruby and its great, but again that gets to gem/dependency management horror.
Guessing I just need to work with it and I'll find things out. Should hop into a go irc channel if there is one on freenode.
