I keep on clicking on these Go headlines thinking they are about the board game. :-( I thought this was about flaws in a computer-go algorithm.

  Given the relative frequency of topics on HN, that seems like a strange assumption.

    Still, s/Go/Golang/ would help clear up any confusion.

      But the language is not named Golang.

      So would /s/Go/Gogame/, but I think you'd agree that's a pretty silly suggestion.

  Ha, and a group of stones can "escape" capture in Go-the-game, and a Go-playing engine might even plausibly analyze whether some stones can escape. I dig it.

  I kinda want to write a Go playing program in Go named "GoGo" just to mess with people.
