Go’s march to low-latency GC

Then we might be in some alternate reality talking about how Twitch could never deliver a viable service because the developers kept creating segfaults. C is the last language I would choose in a race to a viable service.

And yet, the majority of services the world relies on everyday, from OSes and drivers, to Google search, NASA code, medical devices, etc are written in C/C++.

Too bad no one can deploy linux servers because of all the segfaults.

I'm flabbergasted that people are able to post to this thread at all, what with all the segfaults their C++ based browsers must be experiencing all the time.

I experienced quite a few kernel panics in the earlier days... Generally from poor drivers, but just the same.
