lol, it's not a cult, it's science
The science is the cult. Where have you been these past 4 years.

i first found go on the #btc on freenode in 2013 lol it was not for nothing that one of the major ethereum impls and the whole cosmos thing was Go and why btcd and lnd... etc etc we are gophers, we work in the background, away from your sight, and appear to me miracle workers because we didn't take the easy ways of the dark side

This is me using Go right now. My brain is not big yet. 😂
well, just focus on terminal stuff and http stuff for now, that stuff is so smooth, most of the people i know who use it came from doing webapp dev with json and http libraries, it's a pattern they got right early
and yeah, systems file access and scanning stuff... well it depends on your taste, but http, net and os libraries are the best designed stdlib core libraries in the universe
Yeah, the terminal runtime and project setup is the smoothest I've come across. I like the fact that you can just publish modules anywhere without a central repository too. My primary background is actually engineering, but I switched to coding, mostly with python and graph data, and light frontend work.
yeah, i keep pointing out to people that rust crates and npm modules both are centralised and yet so many people think this is the cutting edge? bro, we got done isolating from gatekeepers with Go source code like a decade ago
Even though you can use crates and packages and wheels and whatever else from other sources with whatever workaround they have for it, it's nice that it's the default in Go.
