Can we stop pretending Erlang does not exist?
Go is a next-gen trumpian language that rejects sum types, pattern matching, non-nil pointers, and for years, generics; it's unhinged.
- seabrookmx 2y agoWhile I generally agree with your take that it's a regression in PL design, there's no need to be inflammatory. There's lots of good software written in it. > pretending Erlang does not exist For better or worse it doesn't to most programmers. The syntax is not nearly as approachable as GoLang. Luckily Elixir exists.
