I'm not going to read the article because the question as a title suggests to me that the journalist could have done more research.
That aside, this reminds me of the UK which regularly has floods in winter, and droughts in summer. Now if we have too much water in one season, and too little water in another, surely it's not too hard to figure out a common solution to both. I call it a "dam". Are there reasons the UK doesn't do this? Too much focus on trains?
I don't agree. The web has many examples and tutorials of the basics. I come to HN for the special stuff. If I want to see a terraced house I can go to any town in the UK. I go to Barcelona when I want to see a Gaudi. Great that the author wrote this. Assuming it didn't get in the way of him doing something better then I might agree that the world is a better place (let's give that emotive defender speech stuff a kick), good for him, but I don't see that HN is a better place. This is not the first time that beginner dev Go stuff has been posted here, and hung around the top of the first page, it's increasing. If that's the direction HN is heading in, the impressive stuff displaced by junior tutorials, the Gaudis will leave, the juniors will post, watch the feedback loop.
Edit: no, seriously, as the other commenter mentions: "This site is well known and I have been using it as reference for a long time." If looking for something like this, it would've been hard to avoid this. This post seems sponsored, or friends doing favours. Weird.
Considering how different the so-called NoSQL data stores are, and how uselessly broad the NoSQL categorisation is, I'd be interested to hear the comparison points.
Until the government changes planning policy to be realistic
The government have no incentive to lower property values - quite the opposite. Their policies are all inflationary, while looking superficially helpful.
Not relevant who they designed it for. What matters is who is adopting it. I work at a FTSE 100 company and I'm seeing it become the new Visual Basic. Everyone and anyone switching over, no barrier to entry. Idiomatic Go is increasingly turning into a pleasant memory. In the interview I started grinning at the interviewer, thinking his questions were a joke, then I realised, joined anyway. Lots of PHP devs switching over to write services. I left the MS world because of the low barrier to entry, and although I've thoroughly enjoyed Go I'm now thinking I'll have to move on for the same reason.
