ok, first impression: Cool, way to go! - but: is it too ambitious?
Google tries to do a pretty revolotionary thing here:
> A system level language, even more efficiant than C
> Almost as rich as C++ and Java
> As simple, fun and fast to program as JavaScript or Python
> And, for todays world: a lot of internet & networking support built in ...
I find it an excellent approach, and many things match with what I personally think, programming should go to (what should be different to the MS or Java world ...)
Video:
1:30 - System language with dynamic typing
2:46 - the philosophy of go: Making programming FAST & EFFICIENT again
5:20 - Dynamic Typing
16:50 - Go Language overview & examples
Like with many things google develops, this again is very close in the basic philosopy to what Colayer does - and fits well into our technology - will the next flavour of Colayla be on Go? - maybe! would love to! - but the language is far from beeing in a stage, where I would start the development. I think its gona take at least 6 months to have all tools & stability needed and see, how it works out, and if it will be accepted by the tech community. The main factor here: it is (again) VERY AMBITIOUS on a technical level, and the big question is: will it work? (I guess so, but:) and will it have enough advantages to make engineer switch from the so much more mature languages of C etc? -
