Go has a non-compacting GC (hugely important for integration with other native code, where I should also mention it has C-style struct layouts), and in recent iterations has pauses in the microseconds range. And that's if you're a

Do those usage distinctions really hold? We all know the mythology that Go was created as a replacement for C++ (the Go FAQ still lists it as being created because of the poor system language tools). Rust targets largely the same problem sp

The name can still carry terrifying connotations given the history of the area, regardless of its origin. And of course in this case the practice of lynching was named for one of the founder's relatives. I happened to see your comment
