Effective Go
I really liked using Go until I tried to publish a module with a version greater than 1.<p>What kind of packaging system chokes on v2 of a module?  What kind of language recommends[0] with a straight face that you just duplicate your entire codebase into a v2/ subdirectory?<p>The module system is so obtuse and the documentation so poor that I will probably avoid go and choose other languages from now on.  It really feels like they came to release time and someone in the meeting said "hey guys what if someone wants to release a new major version of their library?" and everyone else in the room had an "oh shit" moment because their amateur language design didn't address that corner case.<p>[0] <a href="https://go.dev/blog/v2-go-modules" rel="nofollow">https://go.dev/blog/v2-go-modules</a>
