It's a case of "keep repeating it and maybe it'll be true, someday, err, I hope". It's something you often see when people make mental investments into certain paths/things/ideas. And then they have to keep repeating it, both in order to try make it true, and to shield themselves from reality. Sort of like node.js
- jnbiche 12y agoWow, that's so full of wrong assertions and ad hominem I don't even know where to start. First of all, I don't even particularly like Golang as a language, so you're incredibly wrong about my motivations. Secondly, if you don't think Python to Golang adoption is on the rise among SV start-ups, you're living in a bubble. Look up HN Golang posts and count how many of them are from Python backgrounds. This may not represent the entire global Python programming community, but it's without doubt an important and influential segment of it. Finally, I clearly struck some kind of nerve, since my comment is at the top of the page. You may not like my opinion, but it's evidently a common one.
