I learned some fraction of 11 years ago. I’ve written simple things. Here’s an example: github.com/wolf/intset/blob/ma. I could probably, with a reference, solve a reasonable problem in it. Yes, Go is simpler than or . It seems like a fine language. I just didn’t have any reason to use it. I didn’t find it compelling. If employment required me to use it, I would; but it doesn’t hold for me the level of excitement as and Rust.

The fact that your 11yo code probably still works on the latest compiler release is imho already very exciting. I keep updating my Python projects with every interpreter release, something is always broken.

@YesJustWolf That's reasonable. Go is a boring language by design — intended for engineering, not for experiments.
