Whenever I see someone dismiss the work of obviously smart people as "trash" then I just assume they are 1) arrogant and 2) usually missing the point.

E.g. complaining about the capitalisation of intermediate output is just pure whining. It's not a substantial criticism at all.

I'll note that the BSD ports of golang were brought up without any of this nasty complaint, even the OpenBSD one :)

Well, I brought up the Solaris port, and I don't have any complaint. I wrote about the experience in the previous HN thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8817568
