@bender@twtxt.net Here’s a short-list:
- Simple, minimal syntax—master the core in hours, not months.
- CSP-style concurrency (goroutines & channels)—safe, scalable parallelism.
- Blazing-fast compiler & single-binary deploys—zero runtime dependencies.
- Rich stdlib & built-in tooling (gofmt, go test, modules).
- No heavy frameworks or hidden magic—unlike Java/C++/Python overhead.
@prologic@twtxt.net I remember going through your “introduction to Golang”, I don’t remember the URL, but I vividly remember going through it, and I was lost at chapter one. So, about that “mastering” the core in hours, “I don’t believe you.” (insert I don’t believe you meme animated GIF here). LOL.
