go is quite worse than rust. go has mandatory garbage collection, and its bootstrap compiler is gcc (now c++ mandatory), no effort on a "working kernel" as far as I know (at least they are trying with rust). rust has in-syntax string management, why not in-syntax thread management while they are it. Their bootstrap SDK is a pile of insane junk (mozilla based, then expected). Well, I'm waiting to get a working basic kernel coded with go. I think they did try with ada.

For the reasons I gave, those "interpreted" languages should be avoided like hell, they are sneaky and really bad, and avoiding the "war" between all interpreted languages is already so much added value that it is worth it. The only sane way is a set of simple SH scripts orchestrating a set of C coded programs: YES, I will take a bit more time to code, YES, I will compile, but OH GOD! I'M WON'T FUCKING DEPEND ON THOSE... (insert pejorative anything here, it will do). -- Sylvain
