Trying out this Go thing at Disqus

Go's goroutines are superior to threads in C#.

C++ is harder and there's no garbage collection.

I now have to yet again close my apps and restart my computer for an IT-forced Java runtime update, for some app I rarely use. For that reason alone I'd not consider Java.

From what I can tell Go's goroutines are pretty similar to C#'s await functionality.

But I don't want you to use C#/C++/Java, I want you to use Nimrod.

I forgot that C# added more asynchronous stuff since I last coded in it. I used to love C# but it's more verbose than Go and I'm weary of the obfuscated MS documentation that pushes me straight to blogs. Also I gave up on using Windows for web development.

This is the first I've heard of Nimrod.
