Google Releases Version 1.5 of Its Go Programming Language, Finally Ditches C
An anonymous reader writes: Google has launched the sixth notable stable release of its Go programming language Go 1.5. VB reports: "This is not a major release, as denoted by the version number and the fact that the only language change is the lifting of a restriction in the map literal syntax to make them more consistent with slice literals. That said, Go 1.5 does include a significant rewrite: The compiler tool chain has been translated from C to Go. This means "the last vestiges of C code" have been finally removed from the Go code base. As for actual changes in Go 1.5, you'll want to read the full release notes. Highlights include improvements to garbage collection, the developer tools, the standard library, and new ports."
Looks like the SJWs are modding you down. Fuck 'em if they can't take a joke.

those who defend social injustice.
Newsflash for the leftard: there is no such thing as social injustice. All justice or injustice is individual.

Posting as AC for similar reasons.
He was posting AC because he made a humorous though politically incorrect post. You're posting AC because you think backslapping him means you're as cool as he is. You're like the socially inept fat kid that hangs out with the class clown and is the first to laugh at his jokes. The problem is the class clown grows out of it and gets a good job, while the socially inept fat kid just eats cheetos in his parent's basement his whole life and wonders where he went wrong.
But he does inherit their house, so there's that.
Exactly, it's still true that if you're using it then you're a socially inadequate moron.
There is no dichotomy between "social justice" and individual justice, because "social justice" doesn't exist.
I think I've come to the root of the problem: you're an idiot.

Well Done. Now, where exactly did I claim that the english-language specification for C++ is larger than the english-language specification for other languages? I claimed that the language "C++" is larger, but only a moron would use number of pages of english text as a measurement.
OK right. So in magic goose incarnated land, no matter the evidence C++ is larger because reasons. The fact that there are languages out there with formal specifications whith are substantially larger doesn't count because reasons.
That's a perfectly valid point of view (for certain definitions of "valid"), and if it makes you happy you should certainly stick to it. After all there's no point in getting upset about language standards. Life is too short and one should strive for happiness.
A language is more than it's grammer. C++ has a worse grammer than almost every other language ever invented (this is not news to anyon), but nontheles specifieing the full semantics of the language requires substantialy less space than some other populer languages.
You mihgt like to consider why the formal specaficiations for tho'se languages is so much more than just the grammer. Once you understand that, you will become enlitened. Of course it mihgt make you sad because then youll have to sufer cognative disonance. So, on second thoughts, I reccomend you certainly don't try to consider it. It will only upset you, and id never want to be responsible for that :'(

Uh...no. No it's not. See? It's your single-issue obsession that blinds you to what the rest of the world perceives. Everything is about your pet issue, all the time, and it's never off-topic.
BTW the correct term is "misogynist", not anti-feminist. Anyone who disagrees with feminists is a woman-hater. All women are either feminists or masochists.
Shutting down free speech with violence isn't fighting fascism. It IS fascism!
