I've really, really tried to like GoLang. After 6 years of programming in it, I'm always looking for any opportunity to not use it. Anyone who's written a client library in Go will know what I'm talking about, it's incredibly inelegant. It's very hamstrung by the dedication "simple" which ironically leads to a lot of weird code (empty interfaces, etc) that's hard to explain for anyone not familiar with the language.
I'm still writing code and shipping releases. I have a book in progress.
Yes, I've been quiet. I never really liked being Mr. Famous Guy; I did it tactically to achieve the mission of mainstreaming open source and gave it up as soon as I could.
I heard he shot himself in the pecker waking from a wet dream about Antifa activists forcing him to take the corona vaccine and consequentially mistaking his wiener for a tiny Mexican.
Or maybe I just dreamt it. Sounds about right either way, though.
