This "Go is a rewrite of C" misinformation that's been floating around lately is getting almost as bad as the "JavaScript is Scheme-like" nonsense that has gotten uncomfortably common.

Although incorrect and annoying, they are at least becoming a way to identify people who likely don't know what they're talking about.

Odd. This is the first time I've seen it, the one about Go that is.
