So really this isn’t a discussion about the design of Go (of which Ken Thompson was a part of) but just a chance to trash on someone you don’t like.

I am not Rob Pike and therefore cannot provide proof of his grasp of type theory. But I also don't understand the desire to question and debate the knowledge of someone I've never met and has no influence on my life. I have used G

No the two conflicting statements are. 1. Go doesn't have generics because the authors didn't have strong grasp of type theory. 2. Go doesn't have generics, not from a lack of knowledge, but because the authors' real wor

Except there is no fire truck that’s coming. We still need to convince our governments to take action. And how can we do that if we individually are still throwing kindling on the flames.

What real reality are you referring to? That the iPhone X looks flashy? Thats not an objective truth, its taste. If someone likes driving Corvettes because they think it looks anonymous and non-descript. Who are you to tell them they'r

Why are you criticizing someone's personal aesthetic preferences? So you think that the iPhone X isn't understated. Doesn't mean that someone who disagrees is doing "serious rationalization" or "constructing a

Are you saying that it is a bad thing. But since it is happening it should happen to everyone? If so, it just seems like you're propagating more of bad thing. Why not just advocate for the the corporate world to be more accepting of pe

This is my personal gripe with Swift. Theres just so many different ways to form expressions and do control flow. It just feels like code golf to me. for case let (title?, kind) in mediaList.map({ ($0.title, $0.kind) }) where title.hasP

Thank you, I appreciate that! I was just lucky to have saved enough money to take some time off and work on something I find interesting and think has a lot of potential.

Repasting my comment from below, but Matcha is actually based on top of gomobile, albeit with a bunch changes to fit the needs of this framework. Gomobile provides language bindings and Matcha adds a usable component library on top of that.

UI is the difficult part in my opinion. iOS and Android take different approaches to building apps so even if you had a language that perfectly compiled to both Swift and Java, the code to build your views would end up diverging significant

Well if they got the Go runtime on WASM, you could run it in a interpreter and do live reloading. Keeping state across reloads would be challenging, but I don't think it would be an impossible feat. https://github.com/g

You can definitely mix native and dynamic views. Theres an interface for registering custom views with the framework. It doesn't need to take over your entire app either. Matcha gives you a view controller, which displays the Go stuff,

Yeah unfortunately, those are downsides that I don't think will change unless we get Go on wasm or something similar. Go brings its own advantages though. Fast, static typing, goroutines, theres no need for JSX, etc. And personally the

I'm the author of this framework. I think Matcha has a really cool approach to building UIs. Everything is built on top of interfaces, so its very easy to reuse and customize components and layouts. Its not quite production ready but I
