Go is the “worse is better” in its purist form. Nothing exciting about it, but it works fine. The boilerplate can be a bit icky at times. I used it a lot of my previous job.
afaik I know I wrote the first public go library called go-twitter a day or two after go was publicly released (sometime in 2010 a think?). Found a few bugs in the json standard library. So yeah i know of it lol 😆 I can’t help myself when it comes to shiny new langs
