Nobody knows what generics are for

really? it's crucial when you need to apply the same function on one of many types that will only be known at runtime, serialization/deserialization over network is a known usecase
Gavin Cox
Learn ASP.NET.
Kevin Allen
generics are harmful
Zachary Young
to continue, I needed generics when I was using Go for some problem, I ended up dealing with their reflection bullshit and I had to write like 200 lines of codes for something that can be done automatically using generics, this is fucking disgusting
Logan Scott
This, no other framework makes more intelligent use of generics than ASP.NET.
Gavin Peterson
poor rob
Jeremiah Stewart
from this statement it seems like go has generics
Tyler Gutierrez
this
C# is the comfiest
Jordan Cruz
Connor Brown
really? tell me how to deserialize []byte to a Type out of 40-50 available types that will only be determined only in runtime depending on a value in the first byte of the buffer
Henry Ward
Levi Lee
reflection and dynamic dispatch on interfaces
Carter Rivera
Well, they're usually a lot cheaper than the name brand.
Carson Williams
I do
Jason Gomez
that's what I said you idiot in this is bullshit esepcially when you have many types (i.e. tens of types) when it can be done automatically in almost all modern languages
Isaiah Lopez
>that will only be known at runtime
not necessarily true, in fact that's sort of the opposite of the truth for proper generics

"How do I generics in Go?"
Do you need generics?

>the unix philosophy means making a language with no generics then expecting people to nigger-rig it into the language like Stroustrup
You may think this, but you're wrong. The reason Go doesn't have generics is not out of some adherence to the "unix philosophy". The reason Go doesn't have generics is because Go was designed to be used by retards who get confused by generics. Rob Pike himself admitted this:
Isaac White
To clarify: Learn ASP.NET core. It makes webdev actually bearable. Just the other day I wrote a single abstract class task runner library that takes any type and provides safe threaded queue execution. The type it takes is generic, so you can do anything with the queued value when it's up to bat. Reusable as fuck.
C# is great.
Liam Jackson

>The designer of Git says that the unix philosophy is to have lots of small tools that collaborate to get the job done. The designer of Fossil says that the unix philosophy is "it just works". Both individuals have written their DVCSes to reflect their own view of the "unix philosophy".
Reminder that Dr. Richard Hipp's software has more deployments around the world than any other piece of software ever written.
Justin Ross
The "unix philosophy" was not the motivation for leaving out generics. The motivation was Google's desire to onboard subpar programmers from third world countries faster. It's difficult to teach Pajeets generics, so generics were left out.
Go's guiding design principle was to be easier for pajeets than Java.
Dylan Price

Jace Myers
Creator of SQLite, which has more deployments than any other piece of software ever written, including windows, iOS, the linux kernel, etc. (And has better test coverage than any other piece of open source software ever written.)
By many measures the most successful software project ever.

The only real downside is asp.net core should have happened years ago.

What's a "brilliant language"?
Mason Martin
Compared to Go, any language with generics apparently.
By Rob Pike's own admission.
Joseph Reyes
their h1b filings have gone through the roof. uncle sam is allowing them to hire up to 5,000 pajeets this year, and that only includes filings that have been already approved up to today. That's against the 55,000 or so total employees that actually work in the US. For it to be 15%, 2/3rds of their employees would have to be replaced this year. I think not.
