Infinite growth does not exist, everything peaks at some point. You have to wonder if a memory model from 2005 still kicks go's ass in 2021 how your your prediction that "there will always be something new and shiny to distract us from the focus we need to leverage the real value of the internet" will play out?

What have you built with go that is interesting?

It's not about new and shiny. Programming is still a relatively new field when compared to other fields. For instance, mathematics and physics took centuries to land on the right way to formalize things.

C is maybe the only good programming language invented so far. Java was a failed attempt at improving C. I think we're rapidly converging on the second good programming language, and it's not going to have null pointer exceptions.
