The concurrent GC is planned for version 1.5 and is only 6 months away. There is also work being done on a compacting GC, but I don't know when that is supposed to land. Actually, the Go team is making very good progress on all the pre

No, the runtime will still create new threads whenever you call a C function or syscall.

Go uses CSP concurrency, which is distinct from the Actor model. They're often conflated since the difference is small, but the distinction is relevant here because it directly addresses your complaint. Namely, synchronization is much

There's no standard syntax. It's supposed to be embeddable into existing programming languages, using the normal syntax for that language.

Okay, it sounds like my fears are unfounded, but I still don't really understand it. What is a host in this context? I know that the plugin API is still in flux, but I really wish it was documented anyway. Actually, I'm not even s

Reading through the Github proposal for Go plugin integration, I'm pretty confused about Neovim's plugin architecture. I had thought that Neovim's plugins would be language agnostic, with external processes communicating with

It means 6 weeks have passed since the last Firefox release, and they are releasing a snapshot of whatever features they were able to make stable in that time. Also, it will not be an extended support release, because 32 % 7 != 3 (every 7th

That installation script is horrifying! I'm sure it has saved some people a lot of time, but it's a terrible idea to point anyone to it who already has an existing vim config.

Yes but Ithkuil is a bit unique in that it decided to include as many grammatical distinctions as possible.

Ithkuil is not simple. It's so ridiculously complex that it is just not possible for anyone to learn to speak fluently. It never stood any chance of being adopted in the way Esperanto has. I'm surprised that it found any use at al

Since everyone here seems to be confused: yes, the Go compiler actively randomizes the order of the keys beyond the unpredictability inherent in hash tables. If your function iterates over a map twice in a row without modifying it, you wi

Go's type system stays out of the way and adds some useful amount of safety. That's more than I can say of any mainstream language. No reason to tear it down just because it doesn't go further.

Google has been pushing for performance improvements in native threads for a similar reason. If that's successful, I think the plan is for Go to switch too, but I can't find any links about it atm.

Unfortunately Rust is not actually using semver, which I always found confusing because they seem to be in support of it, and they even include a semver library in the core distribution. If they were following semver, this release would be
