Gc was a mistake? On what possible authority can you make such a claim?
- tjoff 7y agoIt's not that controversial of a statement. The choice has largely been dictated by the fact that non-GC meant C or C++, and it is not hard to find reasons to avoid them. Now we also have rust, but rust is new and also has a low-level aura, making comparisons to high-level languages difficult. That Go has a GC is a shame, such a missed opportunity.
