the reason why i pick #golang and stubbornly stick to it is because of the difference in the management culture of the Go project. to a lesser extent, the Java developers are similar, but i hate objects and they plague you with slow compilation.

most of the rest of the development companies behind the other languages like Javascript, Python, Rust, C++ and others have a marketing driven management system. marketers think that people keep paying for new features, because they field so many feature requests.

Go's management is engineering driven. they don't listen to marketing, because features create engineering headaches. they also wind up creating headaches for the idiots that buy into the feature creep culture of most development toolchain projects, and even to the point where there is a cultish mentality that i have seen over and over again among developers that go is deficient in some way because of what features marketing pushed engineering to give them. they are literally brainwashed idiots, not qualified, in my opinion, to be called engineers. they are cultists. the cult of objects, the cult of expressive and sprawling and ever growing language syntaxes and toolchain features.

i don't have anything against individual projects that want to build new features, but the moment their marketing driven minds turn to direct engineering, is my red line.

i'm an engineer, not a fucking theatre performer. there is a big difference and if the marketers interfere too much with engineering, you have all kinds of nasty accidents and problems coming from it.

the mainstream cultural zeitgeist is driven by marketing, which is used because megalomaniacs see that it lets them arbitrarily herd people into whatever paddock they want them to be in, no matter how bad it is for them as individuals.

in most of software development, the inmates are in charge of the administration. i'm not joining that circus. tyvm. gfy feature creepers.
