Apple is full of it. 5/7 years ago it was cheaper to fly to New York from Paris, buy a Macbook Pro there and come back since the dollar was pretty low. And you still had money left! Of course they don't care about the exchange rat

XMPP is great for back-end applications and internal messaging for businesses, and is not going away, the issue is the "consumer space" where every big vendor has its own XMPP like protocol but slightly broken to be incompatible w

The issue is why can't France even attract engineers and investors from WITHIN the Eurozone, these people don't need Visa. The issue is elsewhere, not in the pool of engineers. France can't even retain its own engineers.

French here. You have to learn french, people in the french administration aren't going to communicate with in you English. Obviously in Paris more and more people know English since it's a touristic area. But it isn't like B

Go has a http server, so does python and javascript.

Scientific libraries are a complex problem, writing yet another web framework isn't. Furthermore most sci/num libs are heavily linked to C/C++ and FORTRAN code, where most of the work is done.

Nothing can be omakase in Go. The language disallow it, unless you completely opt out of its type system. But then, what's the point of using a statically typed language? Go is built in a way that forbids writing abstractions. When I s

If you're goal is a UI with widgets for a dashboard then yes, using Bootstrap makes no sense. To be fair, if everybody took a little bit of time learning basic CSS nobody would need bootstrap either, especially when rendering differenc

Stupid, I started web development as a designer. They should absolutely code and learn to code. They just shouldn't be able to deploy anything without a serious code review, but it's also true for any professional developer.

Thrash Metal is basically "L.A style" high pitched voice , Death metal is more like "Tampa style" growly voice, Black Metal is more about the look than anything else and Heavy Metal, well any rock band can play heavy.

C has macros handled by C compilers, no need to hack templates with third party pre-processors like Go gen. You can't even compare C and Go in that case. In fact C is more expressive and type safe than Go.

Your argument doesn't explain why a programmer cannot implement his own append or delete functions on existing container types. These exceptions do not make sense.

http://havelang.org/ It's how C++ started. Unfortunately, that's how it will also end for Go, because of Go designers ignoring the past.

A language is as good as its libraries are. Do you provide libs for IOT? WebDev? games? People say, Go is successful because it's backed by Google, no, it's successful because its std lib has a socket and an http server. Focus on
