And then proceed to shit on whatever did bubble up from the community, at least as far as package management goes. I’m glad we’re finally getting the core team to focus on modules but as an outsider that whole situation was handled poorly and doesn’t give me a lot of faith in solutions bubbling up from the community.
Go solves Googles main problem -> something which new engineers can use to write practical solutions without having to think too much. It's not beautiful or expressive or technically interesting; most "craftsman" devs won't stick with it too long..But that's not the majority of devs google is hiring.
Sit down, bang out code and don't concern yourself too much with craftmanship - it will be re-written in a couple of years. Just worry about performance.
