Please read - and > keep to - the Go community Code of Conduct: https://golang.org/conduct I have never read the CoC, but I don't expect it justifies implanting irrelevant social issues into a technical discussion like this to be used as an argument against a differing opinion. Please don't, thank you. Back to the topic. Yes, I agree that Go is going through a serious case of featuritis for some time. It's sad, but knowing there's nothing I can do about it, I'm not really frustrated. Afterall there are places where generics will be just fine. I will be frustrated, however, when I'll have to read generic code in places where it shouldn't be generic. Grep would no longer point me to a particular, plain readable implementation, which then would have to be built mentally only and that will be much more complicated to do. That will happen. It happens routinely in every other programming language that has generics. Because for so many it's so cool to write write-only code. I'm sometimes a sinner too. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
