You keep referencing Google's clearly flawed and asymmetric marketing about Rust. It is really unsightly. It has been thoroughly debunked nearly everywhere it was reported but here is a 10 minute recap of some of the clear flaws: http

These are great but none of them would be considered "recent generation" for this scope and it actually highlights the point rather well. Those projects started before this resurgence in Go and the first two are likely branding ar

Formatting is a very weird thing to get hung up on, particularly when a language like Go is reaching mainstream (if it already isn't there). It's fine not to like the chosen formatting or the decisions made upstream but that comes

I much prefer the pattern I've noticed with the recent generation of Go projects. What I mean is that I find myself more and more often going to a project's repository to check for an issue or open a pull request, only to find tha
