Man, we are doing a CLI autocomplete for duck sake, and You guys want to spin ENTIRE FUCKIN BROWSER for it, and then argue "well, it isn't THAT slow, so what's the problem".

I'm not some extreme purist that thinks everything should be made in C and then hand optimized in assembly, but Jesus, how wasteful can You get before the slightest amount of self awareness starts to kick in.

And for what reason, to save a week of engineering time learning GOlang?

Or, spend the 10 minutes learning that Node isn’t spinning up an entire browser.

This thread is filled with a shitload of this knee jerk idiocy. If you want to promote Go, at least learn how to complain about factual things instead of writing some fiction and complaining about that. Node has legit issues you could complain about. FFS, whine better.

You know, JavaScript runs without a browser... There are several JavaScript implementations, most of them aren't bundled with a browser.
