Unfortunately this is a dark hole of horrible bugs just waiting to happen not to mention the fact that interpreted languages are very liberal with silent type conversion. It is a nightmare to deal with in a large system written by careless

You almost sound angry that other people are enjoying and having success with a language that you loath. I would wager that you simply are not taking enough time to shift your thought process to a state that is more in line with what is av

The raspberry pi is supposed to be an educational tool. You cannot learn anything about the inner workings of an operating system when it is closed source. There isn't much of an argument to be made really for Microsoft on Raspberry

Yeah I follow you. I am providing ways of trying to work around the lack of a higher level type class system. As a baseline, I would recommend not jumping outside golang's given type system just because it feels inconvenient for the

And in Go since there is no parametric polymorphism you would end up writing either: 1) Methods with names that indicate the parameter types. 2) Method calls on objects to convert some internal struct data from one type to another. 3) Somet

No "hurtful" words or images can ever be equivalent to killing another human being.

And once you decide that being offended > killing those who offend you, we see how truly horrible certain mindsets can be. It is disgusting in my opinion.

"Moral relativism is the view that moral judgments are true or false only relative to some particular standpoint (for instance, that of a culture or a historical period) and that no standpoint is uniquely privileged over all others.&qu

I have also been developing something in my free time with go-gl. The GC issue does bother me conceptually, but I have yet to make anything so complex that stop-the-world GC makes me curse the screen. I tried writing something minecraft-l

These guys should grow some balls and just separate from their "partners".

I am guessing this is being said in a joking manner.

The last time I checked, if I buy a hamburger and decide not to eat it, that is entirely up to me. This simply sheds light on how the airline industry perceives its customers, which is to say that it doesn't perceive them at all, but

Framing the idea that ensuring private companies adhere to the status quo is somehow "bad" regulation which will destroy the fabric of the internet is really hilarious. While the decision hasn't been made yet, I would be ab

I have worked at a "startup" for 6 years where I have been, primarily, the only developer. It has been extremely taxing to say the least. I started in my early thirties. Sometimes I feel like a fool. Sometimes I worry about wh

Functional programming is nothing more than applying the rigour of math to programming.

Another counter argument is that golang clearly not an elitist attempt to distance oneself from the mediocre programmer. It is an attempt to distance itself from languages that have a huge surface area. In other words your links premise d

I must write code that is just too simple and uninteresting because I never use generics. I also really enjoy go.

So talking about something that happens on a very very small scale as if it should happen on a large one? You sound like Depak Chopra. But don't worry we will have something similar to this in the not so distant future when editing vi

People get so hung up on one of them being fundamentally better than the other when in fact their fundamental differences and the tension that creates which is actually a decent compromise between a free market and a totalitarian state. &q

And the issue isn't so much whether or not a programmer can hold the "entire system" in their head so much as, if they don't need to, they can be doing a whole lot more. This is, after all, what computers are good for.

Parsimony my friend. Parsimony. All else is academic tail wagging.

This is brilliant.

Yeah feel free to clean up your language. It comes off as unprofessional.

You sack them as soon as you have their knowledge? Seems a bit extreme. Or you are simply saying that the person in question is aggressively keeping people off of their turf? That must be it :P I have been working at a small startup for

This is why something like golang is appealing. Simple simple and more simple.

The loss of vertical alignment in go fmt is something that bothers me a bit. I am an aggressive vertical aligner and proud of it! It reduces the amount of noise in the code (as I perceive noise).
