I think when people mention generics, they don’t mean builtins from the language but a language construct for generics.

C# was meant to have generics in day one, but it didn’t make the cut and it was introduced on the next version (2.0)

Mark? AwareDigital 2013?

Funny enough, in their both latest versions. C# AOT has a smaller runtime than Go one

This must be an online thing. In 15+ years of career I haven't yet heard "real software engineer...". If you get your work done no one cares how the hell you accomplish it

The M5 air is much faster than M1 Pro (I have the same setup as OP)

I guess I should have been more specific. I'm not a fan of fields all being public

For me, anytype and the everything is public

> Do you want to iterate using for loop or using .iter().step(2).map()? I don’t think it matters, specially for sort sized loop scopes

The grass is not always greener. I would change the Service Fabric crap I have to deal with any day to K8s.

For me it’s string handling, no private, unused variable is compilation error, and having to implement interfaces myself.

Go changed something, not sure if 20 or 21, where it will download the Go compiler of all your third-party which don’t match yours. It slows things down.

Don't let perfect be the enemy of good enough. This is much better, IMO, than what many other languages do, including Go's modulename/v2 style.

Except Zig is not 1.0

> C++ codebases Now this one sounds almost unbelievable :). I’ve yet to see 3 or more C++ codebases using the same language feature set.

Thinking -> Pay something else (AI) to "think" for you

Society is just 3 meals away from going that route

+1. The idea of making tiling + floating a first class citizen was the best decision they made.
