> 'The thing nobody wants to say is that the reason serious programmers historically hated Go is exactly why LLMs are great at it: There's a ceiling on abstraction. This lines up neatly with the kind of low‑abstraction systems I like running: 2021 HP PC with i7, bare‑metal‑ish, Crunchbang++, no desktop, openbox window manager. Boots to login in 17 seconds. Terminal front and center — local AI bare-metal inference, no wrapper, ffmpeg, ffplay, etc. Go’s “no abstraction ceiling” feels like the same preference at the language level: shallow stack, no indirection, and code that stays close to the metal. That’s why LLMs work so well on Go: it’s opinionated, predictable, and there’s usually one obvious way to do things. Personally, I've come to love a LACK of abstraction. |
