2025: I will not write Rust again
2026: I am done with Golang
2027: I am done with Zig
2028: I am done with programming

It is time to fork pre-generics Go and call it OG.

they need to make go2 with the lesson earned from golang. It will be the GO TO language.

go had no generic, people complain
go have generic, now other people complain.

Prime, you should have stared that Facebook interviewer dead in the eye and said: "Everything will be global, and you will be happy."

"Go is having it's spiritual crisis"

To me it sounds like Primeagen is having his spiritual crisis.

Ive recently been learning Go and working on personal projects to practice it and I noticed how quickly the massive amount of lines of error checking went from annoying to appreciated, I did feel exactly what you mentioned very quickly, its very simple but strict about errors which force you to handle and be aware of them, and i found that it adds a lot of readability when i was still struggling to get used to Go syntax, i can quickly check what the code block does by the error handling. I dont think ive felt the need for much abstraction on my Go projects, i didnt even know "method behaviours" could not be abstract given my little use of it, which is surprising given that at the outdated uni I went to I learnt mostly OOP and Java style code, which was what brought me to learn Go in the first place and genuinely I've been enjoying it, its simpler but still very structured, has a lot of versatility in its own way that easily gave me tools to not rely on certain outdated concepts i was used to, but still i might be a little biased since i have a big preference for long readable and simplified code.

Is this a breakup letter? 😢

Thanks for mentioning Odin, wasn't familiar with it before. It's great!

At this point, Prime is a language hipster.
