That's... interesting.

Most of the gripes about Go could've been apparent before a single line was written, with just some preliminary research. The packaging issues are valid for 2016, even though they are now resolved with Go modules.

Then the rewrites in ClojureScript, Elixir, and now Rust... Sheesh. All this tells me is that the authors are trend chasers rather than solid engineers, which erodes any trust I had in this project.

    Eh. I think my takeaway would be more that this is the authors passion / side project that they use to test and learn new languages.

      That's precisely it :) I believe I’ve finally found the ones that work well both for me and the project.
