Curious about this. I've generally found Go's net libs to be pretty pleasant. Can you compare/contrast it with others you like better?

I'm just a 1990s BSD sockets, write-my-own-select-loop kind of programmer; the idea of an abstract `Dial` interface always seemed like just a performative Plan-9-ism (I assume?).

Anyways. Wrong about that one! Movin' on!

Fair enough.
