this video is quite confusing!
[2012-04-06 22:50:40] Beysl - why is that?why is that?
[2012-03-30 11:07:59] Zyberism - I think it is ...I think it is kinda Ironic to programm "Go" on a Mac.
[2012-03-03 19:01:58] Magnetohydrodynamics - I consider myself a ...I consider myself a bit of a PL nerd. I know Von Neumann machines and formal, turing complete languages intimately. Believe me when I say C++ can and has been done better (D). Java is a stange one, but we can all agree operator overloading isn't evil, right? ECMA is just the retarded kid trying his best to hang with clique of Python/Ruby/Lua/Scheme coolkids
[2012-03-03 18:57:29] Magnetohydrodynamics - Oh, I know C, C++, ...Oh, I know C, C++, D, Java, Python, Ruby, Lua, ML, Haskell and a few others. I prefer C, D, Ruby and Haskell. You have to understand that C++ is from the 1980's and was intially made as a GRAFT on top of C. C is the elegant and powerfull core of UNIX, C++ was a joke made by that SOlstrup guy. If you really want an awesome language, try D. It does everything C++11 does, only it has done so since 1999.
[2012-03-02 22:52:04] GovGoose - I will always quote ...I will always quote that comment's wise words. I know an anti python guy (it's funny, he doesn't like python because it has no curly braces, and yet he codes lua), and I'd love to see how he replies to that.
[2012-02-07 20:13:39] jeremyonfire1 - who said they want ...who said they want to replace them?
[2012-02-07 16:37:06] dannotemail - All those mentioned ...All those mentioned languages were developed for special purposes. C++ - to extend C and add object-oriented features, but to be as close to hardware as C was. Java - to run only at Java VM. And Java perfectly suits to Java VM. ECMAScript is one of the least understandable languages. That's because C coders think that as they know C well they can easily start to write on JS right know, which is not true. But all they do they job good. And Go won't be able to replace them.
[2012-02-07 16:21:44] dannotemail - I know who are all ...I know who are all these people, thanks.
[2012-02-07 07:40:18] jeremyonfire1 - Because they have ...Because they have the best and brightest computer scientists in the world working on it. Look up Ken Thompson, Rob Pike, and Russ Cox of Bell Labs. Hint: one of them is responsible for Unix and UTF-8.
[2011-12-04 18:09:17] elimisteve - go func() { println ...go func() { println("Go is amazing!") }() // <-- Anonymous, non-blocking, *concurrent*, powerful, trivial
[2011-10-14 12:01:44] DartGreene - Go Programming ...Go Programming language looks exciting.
[2011-10-10 01:54:06] system0system0 - when will it end. I ...when will it end. I qould like to program by voice. That the future.
[2011-08-05 16:57:22] gruntlover2 - C++ and Java are ...C++ and Java are awesome , don't rip on languages just because the only language you can code in is VB...
[2011-06-27 03:05:27] Unknownbmxr - extensible?extensible?
[2011-05-19 03:27:02] Lukasilvabr - what is the name of ...what is the name of this language is code language «0ØÆSî1"
[2011-04-23 02:49:29] Magnetohydrodynamics - Because they can? C ...Because they can? C++ has needlessly convulted syntax for archaic reasons, Java has needlessly verbose syntax for odd reasons and ECMAScript has needless syntax for stupid reasons. Not everything has to be curly brackets, and I feel sad that Go uses them too...
[2011-04-23 02:47:34] Magnetohydrodynamics - Fact of the matter ...Fact of the matter is that CPU time is vastly cheaper than Programmer time. Optimization is not really needed, but needlessly inefficient code is still inelegant... You should try looking into functional programming to get a feel of why "think fast, write fast, debug little" is a nice thing for a language.
[2011-04-18 19:02:34] dannotemail - Why does Google ...Why does Google think they can build something better C++, ECMAScript and Java at same time?
[2010-11-29 22:56:06] banthepope - @Dar1066 nice one, ...@Dar1066 nice one, sherlock. I can see you're paying a lot of attention.
[2010-11-20 03:11:30] suseeification - go to five star ...go to five star hotel and meet bbw naneedj.info
[2010-11-03 14:39:17] CrazyHorseInvincible - I don't just seem ...I don't just seem to unaware, I'm totally oblivious. I had no idea that time had any value to business. How did you discover this blind spot I had? Can you help me, please, by pointing out exactly what gave me away?
[2010-10-31 00:14:08] emptycorp - You don't seem to ...You don't seem to be aware that time is money in business but doesn't mean anything to you in mom's basement.
[2010-10-11 20:50:34] frother - Compiles in under a ...Compiles in under a second on just a 900-machine cluster
[2010-08-18 06:49:12] arsalanalinajwani - programmers listen ...programmers listen if you want to do mini jobs online programming related u can try gigme5.com where people love to do things for 5 dollars good opportunity for programmers also..
[2010-08-03 23:39:51] bugQ - Get a degree?Get a degree?
[2010-07-30 11:19:05] CrazyHorseInvincible - I have no idea what ...I have no idea what you're saying. What does " i doubt with c and joe can do..." mean? I wasn't saying libraries don't matter. I'm saying they're irrelevant when judging a language.
[2010-07-30 07:37:56] octavzaharia - is not so im in the ...is not so im in the business for 10 years and I can say that libs & IDE matter everyone requests software yesterday and you cant really make a buck if you dont work fast, i doubt with c and joe can do the same thing in the same time as you do with java and eclipse, VMs also matter a lot since you don't need to recompile for every platform in the world which really helps at deploying, and when u compile 10k lines of code at each 10m you really need a fast compiler.
[2010-07-23 21:01:16] Thetruthishere11 - go = similar to c.go = similar to c.
[2010-07-23 15:24:13] leimy2k - The code I've made ...The code I've made with Go typically comes within a 20% speed gap with C code. Given that I write less code in Go to do something pretty complex, and that Go is faster than Python or Erlang by a lot, it's hitting a nice sweet spot for many applications.
[2010-07-22 08:56:19] earkron - Try doing it ...Try doing it yourself. It's that fast everywhere.
[2010-07-22 02:31:13] AtapGenteng - cool promo.... ...cool promo.... but wait..... about under a second compiled sources..., with what machine u compile that source codes? just Macbook Pro or heavy advanced custom Macbook Pro?
[2010-06-29 17:51:46] Mxylptlk142 - Buy a mac! Pretend ...Buy a mac! Pretend like you're way too creative to be productive!
[2010-06-24 08:56:00] addiktion13 - When I saw GO ...When I saw GO programming language before I knew Google was involved I immediately thought "Google Objective" or something along those lines.
[2010-06-02 21:27:57] jhtrico1850 - I can't code. What ...I can't code. What should I do?
