I have been a C++ programmer for a few years so I know what system level language is like and the whole concept, I actually I like it.
I am not choosing Go because of the hype, I am trying to figure out if there is something behind this hype. The one thing that really caught my eyes is the amazing performance of Go due to the fact it's a system level language.
I believe a lot of the hype is sadly due to it's "concurrency" model which is now a buzzword which also ends up getting conflated with another buzzword "parallelism".
Go is definitely a SOLID language (pun intended), but it does have it's warts:
📦management
🚫generics (yet?)
too many ways to declare a var
etc, etc
I do think...
There are 2 types of programming languages: one nobody uses and the other everybody complains about - somebody?
Personally, I really enjoy writing Go (for work and play) and being apart of it's community (for work and play).
