Go has turned into an Awesome language.
I'm one of those that cannot use a PL that has no generics... It kills the DX of Algorithms and Data Structures.
Now it has Generics, soft RT GC, and it might even get official Arena Allocation.
I /LOVED/ the Matklad comment of |error handling converging|, indeed -- it seems that PL community evolved to "any-error" + annotation-at-call-site.
- marssaxman 3y ago> the DX of Algorithms and Data Structures sorry, what does this phrase mean?
- unmole 3y agoDX is Developer Experience.
- marssaxman 3y agoThanks! I had vaguely imagined it might be related to differentials.
- User23 3y agoI'm guessing that DX means "developer experience" here.
- c-cube 3y agoIt still doesn't have sum types. Maybe 10 more years and Go can catch up to SML (a language from the 1970s). That's a big weakness for a static language this millennium.
