Sometimes I think Go was specifically made for Google to dictate its own preferences on the rest of us like some kind of power play. It enforces one single style of programming too much.
From what I’ve heard from Google employees Google is really stringent with their coding standards and they usually limit what you can do with the language. Like for C++ they don’t even use half the fancy features C++ offers you because it’s hard to reason about them.
I guess that policy makes sense but I feel like it takes out all the fun out of the job.
Just about any place I know that uses C++ also does that with C++ so that’s nothing unusual for C++ specifically. It’s too big of a language to reason about very well if you don’t, so you’ve gotta find a subset that works.

As far as C++ goes, that’s probably the only sane way to use the language.

Is this a hard error? Like it doesn’t compile at all?
Isn’t there something like
#[allow(unused)]in Rust you can put over the declaration?Never really coded in Go outside of trying it out, but as far as I know it’s a hard error.
