/prog/ - why the fuck would anyone use GO?

Its 2x slower than javascript, yet the syntax is even shittier http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u32/benchmark.php?test=all&lang=go&lang2=v8

has no polymorphism http://golangtutorials.blogspot.com/2011/06/polymorphism-in-go.html

shit libraries https://github.com/languages/Go

every language is getting more functional. lambdas/listcomps/generators and infinite lists are being added to languages like C++/javascript/python, while go eschews every advance in language design since 1960

Im trying to learn Pascal myself, but it is difficult as most books are really old and usually about using the Dephi IDE. It would be nice to see someone write an up to date programming book on Free Pascal and perhaps the Lazarus IDE.

Free Pascal follows closely the Borland Pascal and Borland Object Pascal dialects.

More proof why you shouldn't use Go: Rob Pike is an Apple weenie who had to call in tech support to change his hard disk and couldn't get it to turn on afterwards.

Why did Apple, a company supposedly built on ``premium products'' switch to cheaper, lower quality alternatives? If Apple stuck with PowerPC/SCSI, he would have never had these problems.

How embarrassing.

Everything is fair in the name of profits. They marketed it as premium products, build in China, and if something goes wrong, it must be your fault!

Rob is just too old for new PCs.

You should really look up this meme to learn how to use it properly. It's quite embarrassing.

You forgot that the GC is broken on 32 bit so you can't have any long lived processes.
