Nice read. One thing I would definitely want to have in my hand is a hardware cryptocurrency wallet, but that'll require power source and some interaction interface. However, existing microchip implants can be used to increase security

Can you elaborate on what do you mean by "complex business logic"? Any examples?

It sounds like "going to youtube.com changes reflections from you monitor on the wall" to me. Correct me if I'm wrong, but brain waves really don't explain anything and their empirical correspondence to some kinds of act

Yes, Go is unsuitable for writing this: https://twitter.com/philwinkle/status/688441014160355328/pho... But it perfectly allows you to model complex real-life processes, and in a way much better than traditio

I think it's worth to see how this experiment will work out in practice. Go's concurrent GC has predictable pauses less then <100 microseconds (not milli-) even on large heaps (>50GB) and heavy objects allocation pattern. I

Thanks. Yeah, pretty much a lot of CAP related problems are about choosing right trade offs..

I'm using Paper for 2+ years now, including for some team projects, and it literally makes me want to write docs and documentation.

Well, from my 15 years experience for each nice example of ternary operator being useful there are 10 more examples where it's being used improperly and makes code hardly readable. I know that the typical answer is "it's just

Changing the language is like changing the country residence. Some things take long time to get used to, unless you're highly mobile traveller :) I couldn't imagine myself returning to languages with exceptions and ternary operato

Golang compiler produces static binary files, so you don't need install anything. Just run the binary.

> Go is a language that pushes remembering corner cases and failure conditions onto the programmer Can you elaborate on this? I write go for 3+ years and I have no idea what corner cases and failure conditions do you mean.

Hence, the "sometimes" word.

After some polishing and testing on large projects, it will probably will be submitted.

It's not a low-level systems language in traditional view of what "system" is. For Google, "system" is a cloud, not the hardware, so take it from this perspective. By the way, here is a nice video of Q&A session

This post is from Sep 2014. I know the author, he's a nice guy, but when he was at Golang Meetup, he was desperately trying to convince people to switch to Clojure. It's all you have to know about the bias of this article.

It's not actually a leak. It's a program explicitly doing 'run goroutine and don't care of it anymore'. If the program logic wants this - it's ok. If author wants it to finish on some condition, but didn't

I didn't get the point of example with Game and Player. The code behaves exactly how it's told to. If you need some logic to handle conditions where all players have been disconnected - you should implement it, no matter how. Mayb
