I find myself wondering how important the "fun facts" are in this fascinating thread about Go:

Some of those things are true and annoying, while others are exaggerations, and the rest are just wrong. That thread is poor taste.

Yeah, they are (and the author admits as much) but I found

> Fact #38: go is supposedly a garbage collected language, but it has not once deleted itself nor any of my code.

pretty hilarious.

Yeah actually that's really funny.

They're not important. The author admitted she was just shitposting. It was an amusing thread, but rife with misinformation. If someone wanted valid criticisms of Go, I would not send them there.
