@avibryant I'm getting to the point where I judge languages by their iterator. I feel like all I write code to do now is iterate.

@fdaapproved that's totally reasonable. Taken to the extreme, that may lead you to APL/K/J... -
@avibryant There are worse places to end up. :-)

@avibryant In general, I want my programming languages to be useful more than I want them to be good. -
@obra@avibryant Go's simplicity is its strength. You can get the hang of it in 2-3 hours, can't say the same for Rust/Haskell. -

@avibryant *nod* I haven't done anything interesting with any of em :/

@avibryant People should spend as much time convincing “good” languages to add some of the practical benefits of Go. Lower hanging fruit.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@avibryant the interesting thing about go - the "good" thing, I think - is that it's super useful without having lots of language features -
@avibryant I'm not sure what I want out of a language beyond it being useful and a joy to write and read, anyway
