have you actually read it since he prefixed it with this?

EDIT: This is now an old post and my opinion of Go has

changed a great deal over the years. This article has been used to cause

harm on the reputation of Go and its community which is not warranted.

Over the years i’ve come to appreciate the simplicity of Go and the

ethos behind its creation. Today, I’m employed as a Go engineer and I

enjoy using it tremendously. In fact, I’d go further and say it’s one of

the finest languages I’ve ever used. With all honesty, my opinion was

wrong when I wrote this article and the quotes by Rob Pike were

obviously a reaction to the complexity of other bloated languages.
