That's true for the gc compilers, but not for gccgo (yet, anyway). Each go statement in gccgo creates a pthread.

It's not that Wikipedia is necessarily high quality, it's that users want to see relevant Wikipedia articles near the tops of their searches. It's a really useful starting point for a wide variety of searches.

That's a great feature for bigger projects. I would love to see a similar grep-type feature, where I can quickly search through the files in a repository for text. (Yes, I know there's advanced search, but that's so disruptive to my code re

Okay, you're right. I shortened what I was trying to say too much. UTF-16 evolved from UCS-2, so its roots are in a 16-bit, fixed-width encoding.

I totally agree. Not only will headers including headers cause files to rebuild unnecessarily, but it can cause build times to increase simply because the compiler has to compile all those extra headers each time they're included in a sourc

I couldn't agree more, and I really don't understand the author's argument. He refers to APL, a language that's legendary for its use of wild symbols, as "write only," but then seems to be complaining that newer languages aren't doing the s

I think it's worth pointing out that underneath, most of the libraries those dynamic languages are using are written in C or even assembly in some cases. I'm not saying that those benchmarks don't have value, but saying that Go's barely fas

I find it interesting that he says Go's syntax is ugly, but that Clay programs look so good and readable. The two languages have a very similar basic syntax, and some of the Go's differences are an improvement in my book: no semi-colons, fe
