  • Heh, ‘garbage language’ or ‘garbage-collected language’? Until Go I considered the two to be the same :)

    But yeah… the tooling is a strong point IMO.

    (Package management went downhill once the whole GOPROXY thing was introduced. When ‘go get’ was the simplest way to fetch packages, things were great IMHO … but I’m not doing big enterprise-y stuff so maybe my view is too narrow as to the issues of ‘vendoring’, version management etc.)




  • I am interested in your reply as I have read in a few mushroom books that Amanita in Europe were a traditionally eaten species, after par-boiling. Apparently it mitigated the nasty bits and made them palatable… but the books also state (probably to cover their butts legally) that none of this had ever been verified as safe for the North-American equivalents.

    Over on the west coast of BC the yellow and red Amanita can grow to large sizes, and I’ve been wanting to find out if they’re actually edible (or, yes, perhaps usable for their psychaedelic properties). All the books I have say, if anything, that they’ll make you extremely ill (not kill you, but sweating, puking and sh*tting yourself for days).
