If anyone deserves this, it’s Rob Pike. He was instrumental in inflicting Go on the world. He could have studied programming languages and done something to improve the state of the art and help communicate good practices to a wider audience. Instead he perpetuated 1970s thinking about programming with no knowledge or understanding of what we’ve discovered in the half-century since then.

As you think Go is a wrong way for computing, tell us about the others routes that we should explore…
I'll take that bet.
Wait until you hear about the -bad- programming languages.
