Does anyone really think they can make dumb people smarter by changing the syntax?
It provides absolutely nothing new to computer programming.
Dumb people can't code! PERIOD!
Does anyone think that dumb people will be able to speak better if we create a new English!
Nobody thinks that!
But change the computer language syntax and somehow dumb people are going to start coding????
Bullshit.
Trust me; no dumb person is going to write a best seller because we change languages;
just like no dumb person is going to write good code with a new programming language.
"New" computer languages are an increasing waste of time for companies and developers.
Companies are hiring 5 people who half-ass know 5 languages instead of 5 people who
know 1 language well. Then they wonder why their system is broken and they keep
having to hire freelancers and consultants to fix things.
"New Language" : Nope; just new shit to waste time without getting even one more thing completed faster/better/cheaper etc...
OH WAIT!!!
ACTION SCRIPT 3 saved FLASH from being dead, right?

because clearly the guy on gfy with a "college degree in computer science" knows more than an 800+ billion dollar company that employs a significant percentage of the most talented computer scientists in the world
I get where you're coming from man, I'm as tired as you are of the constant stream of new languages and frameworks to do the same shit we've always been doing...
but google identified scaling issues with their codebase and created go in order to address those issues. you really can't argue with a billion dollar company finding a better way to do things.
it's still a completely useless language for the average programmer/web-dev.
