while arguing against your self is nice practice - diarrhea is just... you know... really messy. I hope you get well soon. :)

Actually it would remind me on C. It did not even support a redundant comment token, and of course they did not used a comment to mark directives. go troll your self. I am always open to argue, but you have no leverage to be snarky.

well, i see - my statement was flawed. :)

okay, i'll jump :) 1) First of all change is not nessesary - because within the current "comment directive convention" the tooling needs can be achived. Even more so - they can be achived without changing the current spec of

I too like the idea that comments are more than blabber. I do use comments like //BUG: //TODO: and //HOT: My argument is semantic? Yes it is! In my optinion thats the reason my argument is so strong. Please don

One of the best features of go is "go fix" Yea! A migration tool for the language it self? Before they need to worry about compatibility they can break a lot of stuff.

Yes, I like to elaborate. Good code is unambiguous. IF has a meaning - and it always have this meaning. FUNC has a meaning - always the same. // are comments. The meaning of comments is to communicate with humans. We know the prin

I would define a directive as an instruction to the tool chain. A macro processor could be one of those tools in the chain. There could be other (and Go implements other use cases!) I would also argue that a macro preprocessor do'snt n

I think this was a bad decision. I think you would agree as soon a tool emerges that follows your example and uses //todo: bar to do stuff with the code, and makes the program fail because it's not done, because you don'

uh - that's really bad! :(

no difference - both are misused comments. the main problem is not technologie but semantic. If you agree with me that the meaning of a comments is communication between humans, than you must also agree - in my opinion - that comments can n

Sounds interesting. I like that algebra types are available in an OO Language. http://tutorial.ponylang.org/capabilities/introduction/ is the best concise description why concurrency is hard I read until now.

Is there a project for a DBMS on MirageOS? I would relay like to try out MirageOS on a web shop project of mine, but can't imagine to start writing a database, or even a file system to store images..
