I don't think they created the language for fun . I read somewhere that they have a lot (I think it was in the MLOC range) of proprietary/in-house code written in go.

I know it's a controversial point among users, but I think that if Generics were such a show stopper, Google would have implemented them. Go was invented for internal Google use, and then shared with the world, and Google is an enginee

The thing with functional languages is that most imperative languages can "do functional things", but not vice versa. For example, many algorithms are beautiful when expressed in a recursive manner (Fibonacci, for example) , and p

If you're not running your own VPS (which you shouldn't for a little blog), then your host should take care of this for you.

Because then your ability to stay private and secure is tied to the government? If we're already talking about breaking the current TLS system, a DNS based security (Browsers include DNS keys, DNS hosts site keys) makes much more sense

>but at least they'd be faster The problem with microkernal's isn't compatibility, it's speed.

Does Apple run on a MicroKernel? Microsoft? Google definitely doesn't (it runs on linux). The problems they solve are orthogonal to kernel issues. Sandboxing thwarts userspace attacks (any program I install has access to my userspace).

Counterexample - OpenBSD. Even a micro-kernel won't help. Even there, you have a few "keys to the kingdom", such as compromising the HD driver (If I can write what I want, I can modify the micro-kernel how I want).
