Fibers and channels is not parallelism / multi-threading.
Currently the work being done on multi-threading for Crystal is heavily unfinished. Most commits seem to involve cleanup and changes in the current code to make it able to run multi-threading.

That's a great way to do it. I've considered contracting but I just don't have the right personality for it.
That said, London is an amazing place, I think you're making the right choice -- chasing the most money isn't always the best course of action.

That's not correct. Insurance mandatory you can buy on a (well regulated) competitive market at reasonable rates, and it's free for those with low incomes: https://www.iamexpat.nl/expat-info/insurances-netherlands/dutch-health-insurance. There's even an online market place a la Obamacare: https://www.zorgwijzer.nl/zorgvergelijker/english#/search
Don't get me wrong, this is a better model *for the population as a whole*, but for high paid workers it can be a downgrade.

The code example is not even a memory leak, it is just bad design. In some cases this kind of code is even preferable due to performance. You cannot have memory leaks with managed languages, unless you explicitly want to do so.

I entirely disagree. I've worked with C++ for over 20 years and on many projects, and the formatting of code has surprisingly often been one of the most contentious but least consequential issues.
Further, automatic code formatting improves readability.

By explicitly declaring structs as implementing interfaces, means creation on rigid hierarchies, much like Java and C++.
Go's approach provides significant flexibility, and what's usually been the domain of dynamic languages.
And tools do exist for one to be able to show which interfaces are implicitly implemented by structs.

I understand your criticism about Go. But you would not have this simplicity when looking at code from many places if much complexity was added.
About error handling, you can encapsulate at least that boilerplate. I would not use Go as a general purpose language, but being pragmatic, for writing small tools and especially for writing servers, it works very well.
There are things I do not like but the simplicity they kept is something to consider as a positive thing actually. Sometimes too simple, yes, but not overengineered. I am mainly a C++ user and I am grateful that tools like Go or Python also exist because they complement C++ quite well for my use cases.

>The irony of someone still mired in this delusion telling someone like Rob Pike (if you don't know what Rob has done I suggest you look him up) that the lack of syntax highlighting in docs is a major issue of the language. I'm not asahmed to admit it: I LOL'd.
While it’s far from a major issue, what he’s achieved is neither here nor there. Achievements don’t make you infallable and decisions should be critiqued the same as anyone else, anything else is just cult like blind worship.

It's not 5x. It's about 1.75x, if you compare like against like and use developed countries for the comparison. There are far more software engineers making $60–120k than $400k+.
Yes, there are a few people in the Bay Area making $250–500k (and, very rarely, more... usually in stock, which means their income isn't diversified). They're not software engineers. They're managers who like to think they still code, and who occasionally take time to crank out a proof of concept (before pushing the ugly details down the chain). You don't get those jobs by being a good programmer and magically being in the US. You get those jobs the same way you get any other overpaid managerial sinecure: either by being lucky or by playing vicious politics. It can be done, but you'd make even more money if you played the same games in, say, finance or management consulting.
Bay Area cost of living is also horrible. It's more expensive than New York, and you get a lot less. Manhattan is a genuine city where everything but rent can be affordable; the Bay Area is a giant suburban parking lot, so you'll need a car, and because of "cultural fit" nonsense in the corporate world, you'll need an expensive one if you ever want to become a manager.
Programmer pay outside of the US is low because it's a low-status job, and it's a low-status job because, even though software engineers are individually quite smart, they seem to lack the collective intelligence that it would take either to unionize or to become a genuine profession, which means that they're helpless against the thing the boss-men do to lower our status (e.g., "Agile Scrotum" project management that has us interviewing for our own jobs every morning). I'd like to think otherwise; I'd like to think it's possible that programmers could get their shit together... but I'm 35 years old and I haven't seen it.
I would describe the pay and working conditions of U.S. private-sector software engineers as upper-working class at absolute best. You get very little say in what you work on. You will often have to compete on hours– since the people in charge aren't smart enough to recognize excellence, it's compete-to-suffer rather than compete-to-excel– with clueless, interchangeable 22-year-olds who don't know anything (and who will create more problems than they solve) but will be in the office at 1:30 in the morning.
Do we make more than our counterparts in Italy or France? Sure, but we have to put up with American work culture, and it's a 10-year career if you're lucky. If you're not a manager by your late 30s, you're literally unhireable because there is no respect for expertise– private-sector software here is all about doing easy things fast and sloppily, rather than doing anything well.
Being a professional programmer anywhere in the world is pretty miserable. (Programming is fun. But most of the job isn't programming; it's political nonsense that "product managers" and various executards generate.) It's a non-career that starts off strong but leaves you on a sandbar in middle age. It wouldn't surprise me if it's just as bad outside of the US, but the idea that it magically becomes a high-status, rewarding, remunerative job if you change countries is... not supported by the evidence.

Another issue is that a major enterprise may literally have billions of dollars in the bank, and that makes them an easy target for lawsuits. In a small startup, of COURSE nobody wants to get sued and of COURSE nobody wants to lose their investment in their company. But in a huge company you will have entire departments full of people whose job it is to make sure that they don't lose all that money in a lawsuit (or similar action). In a startup, the people most likely to lose it all are so busy getting customers and building products, they don't have time to worry about lawsuits until they are forced to.

The problem with this reasoning is that very often it's not a 20 percent paycut. 300k and up salaries are common in big tech cities, whereas 150k would be considered very good in most of the rest of the country. For many people if they can't work remotely the paycut is closer to 50 percent. It's also way harder to find a place where both you and your spouse can find a job you like outside of big cities.
Cost of living in big cities is higher of course but not exactly by as much as many people think. Housing is insanely more, and people often go by that, but nothing else significant increases by the same degree. Many things like electronics, clothing, etc basically anything you often buy online is the same. Cars are roughly the same with insurance and gas moderately higher.
I find in practice people working high end tech jobs do better financially than counterparts in the rest of the country. The main trade off is that single people have very small apartments, and people with families have long commutes.

If you had put that money into buying a house, you'd have spent also on property taxes, maintenance, insurance, renovations, and might have lost money on sale depending on timing. Buying a house as opposed to renting doesn't mean you end up with an asset. A house you live in is not an asset, it's a liability that might, *might* be sold at a profit. Might also be sold at a loss...

> But in neither would linking to ESR's guide help.
You're saying it would be perceived as passive-aggressive. So present some version of that answer in another way. I'm sure someone else has written a good, succinct version. It doesn't matter if someone is pointed at ESR's exhaustive doc or not, that was never the point.
Or present it up front, instead of as a response. Most communities try to establish some expectations. This can sometimes be easier said than done, though, especially in communities with low barriers to entry.

[Chrome also has a lot of forks.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_\(web_browser\)#Other_browsers_based_on_Chromium).
Really though. Forks, especially small forks, usually don't harm the userbase much. Even big forks usually end up being better for the overall project(s) or users. See GCC and OpenOffice/LibreOffice. Also, why should this hurt Firefox in particular, when Chrome/Chromium does just fine with a myriad of forks and chromium based browsers?

"If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses." - Ford
I understand why Pike is opinionated. If he gave everybody what they want, they would have a faster horse. That said, the problem with Go isn't Go, it's the community. Go's community is one of the most elitist communities in the tech space. It's very off-putting. Compare it to say the Rust community which is very inviting and helpful.
It's almost as if one of these technologies was made at a company infamous for it's employee's elitist attitudes, and the other by a non-profit corporation.

Oh and one more: big cumbersome enterprises generally deal with other big cumbersome enterprises. We had customers with a few dozen employees and others with thousands. The former were always bitching about why any changes took so long - fair enough - and the latter were too, but the latter would also bitch about instability of limiting releases to 1 or 2 per year. PER YEAR! And that was often THEIR demand, not ours. It's hard to stay nimble when customers literally and directly want the opposite. In fairness though, when you are a huge company dealing with training and procedure changes across thousands of people and dozens of locations, you can't tolerate changes as well, no matter how efficient you are.

Not everything in the JS ecosystem sucks. Only 99% of it does. Believe it or not, every language--yes even the likes of JS and PHP--have high quality libraries and frameworks that will/do stand the test of time.
But yes the churn is ridiculous in the JS world, I don't disagree.

First off very few software engineers make 250k a year, and they definitely do not make that from lets say age 25 to 40. The expenses are also probably higher, especially depending on family and age.
Putting aside 100k a year for even lets say 10 years (ages 30 to 40 when you are more likely to be high-paid employee), with lets say 5% return a year on average (considering the current economic situation), you won't really have THAT much money. It gets you couple of extra years on top of what you set aside, and thats assuming you keep living relatively frugally.
​
Point being that this looks like a lot more money on the surface than it really ends up being. And the cost of living is almost always higher than people estimate, as there is so much additional stuff that money gets spent on in addition to just rent - clothes, food, commute, entertainment, traveling (unless you never take PTO), new gadgets etc. etc.

This is a common misconception. More precisely, your statement about the halting problem is absolutely true, but as it's not the halting problem as normally presented that causes an issue for verification, "escaping" it through weaker models is irrelevant, and buys us nothing. The more appropriate theoretical theorem for the problem of verification is what has sometimes been called "bounded halting" (used in the proof of the time-hierarchy theorem, arguably the most important theorem in all of computer science). Bounded halting is a generalization (and a strengthening) of halting, and it says (roughly) that it's impossible to know whether a program halts within n steps in under n steps (the halting problem then becomes the special case where n is infinite). This means that there is no generally faster way to tell whether a program does something other than brute-force trying all possible states. This theorem holds unchanged (and with the same proofs) even for models that always terminate and so aren't prone to the "classical" halting problem (such as so-called "total languages"), and it holds even for finite state machines (although using a different proof). So the difficulty of verifying whether a program behaves as expected is the same regardless of the programming or computation model[1]. I.e., verifying a program that has, say, 3 million states is just as costly if it were written as a regular expression (so in a weak computational model) as it would if it were written in JavaScript.
[1]: There is one exception I'm aware of, and that is pushdown-automata, where some properties involving an infinite number of states can be solved in finite time.

Crystal is great ... until you really work with it.
The issue with Crystal is:
* Buggy at times. Especially under WSL ( What is the officially supported solution for working on Windows )
* Editor support is as good as missing on a lot of editor platforms. Visual Studio Code has some plugins that at best do minimal type hinting etc. Jetbrain has again no real functional plugin. And those plugins are only usable on Linux/MacOS. Checking the actual plugin developers pushes and commits, you see very little activity.
* That brings us to no Windows support. They are working on it and it was supposed to be a feature for 2018. Based upon the amount of work left, my personal estimate is end 2019.
* Multi-threading is non existing. Work is being done on it and they are maybe half way but for being a 2018 goal, it has been stalled a lot.
* Activity: The issues above with Windows, multi-threading all stem from a single issue. The lack of core developers on the language.
Crystal is really the brainchild of Manas.Tech, a Ruby like development company that wanted the power of Go, with the easy of Ruby. It was them that pushed a lot of the early development of Crystal. With Employees donating time.
But as the company has gotten more busy, so has the commitment towards Crystal dropped. Less free time, less time to donate. And most of the features they wanted, are already in the language.
That leaves you with mostly a few volunteers and one fixed employee bcardiff ( that is funded with donations from bounty source and 84 codes ).
And donations to bounty source also go directly to manas.tech, not a non-profit foundation. So its mostly manas.tech that sets the major agenda points.
So then you have a progress, that can be at best described as snails pace. https://github.com/crystal-lang/crystal/commits/master
As a result Go keeps evolving faster and faster ( Plugin support, Wasm, etc ... ), where as Crystal seems to be stuck, still trying to figure out the language.
* Breaking changes. Are a result of Crystal not finding its footing yet, they have the habit of releasing plenty of breaking changes. These are not a issue if your projects are a few hundred lines but on large projects those breaking changes are a major issue. This is one of the reason why you see Crystal being used for hobby projects but not a lot of big serious projects.
* Design issues. The issue with the slow compiler, is something that has come up a lot of times.
These are some comments from asterite, one of the early developers ( the main developer / inventor of Crystal) that still helps out from time to time.
> Crystal has a limit to the size of programs it can compile. As such, I mostly find it useful for small programs. Compilation times will get bigger and bigger as your application size grows, and there's nothing you can do about it. I always wanted to find a way to change the language to provide incremental or modular compilation, but the community doesn't seem to care
> Crystal should probably become fully typed at one point to survive (and ban many features, like reopening classes, redefining methods, remove compile-time reflection, etc., essentially becoming something Crystal is not :-P (conclusion: Crystal won't survive))
So the solution to fixing issues with Crystal, is to make Crystal into Go. And that may be a issue for a lot of people who like Crystal.
Crystal has a lot of neat features but comparing Crystal and Go can be mistake. One i also made a lot.
Both are indeed compile languages. Both results in very fast executable ( with Crystal at times winning thanks to the LLVM back-end ). But that is where they start to separate.
Crystal is easier then Go, especially for people who are used to Ruby programming. But it comes at a cost, a **big** cost, namely progressively worse and worse compile times as your code grows.
It will take years for Crystal to really mature, where you as a company can feel safe on its future and your companies productivity.
Go also has its issue ( Gopath!!!!! Error handeling!!!!! ) but everything around it really helps out to create a stable and productive language. From plugin support in VSC and Jetbrain their GoLand, massive amount of drivers and extensions, code examples everywhere, multi-threading, lots of platform support and more.
That is the difference between a (now) major language and a language that has no real big financial backers. I wish Crystal all the success because its a uphill battle. But by the time that Crystal fixes a lot of their issues ( and compile times is probably a issue that will hound it forever ), we are probably already looking at Go 2 with generics, cleaner error handling and god knows what more.
The truth is, when you really look at a lot of "new" languages, your choices are more limited then you really think. There are a lot of languages out in the world but a lot are simply not popular, lacking in support, lacking in communities and most of all, lacking in real financial backing to push them forwards. Most languages that become a long lasting success ( not saying if they are really good languages ) tend to be languages that got a lot of financial backing.
And Crystal is really missing that point.

Maybe you should specify then how do you know that the commenter you replied to doesn't use some third party syntax highlighting? Article only states that Rob Pike is openly hostile on public forums about the feature, it doesn't have anything to do with anything what other people and companies might do with the language.

Not sure what you mean by don’t support them. In a dynamic language every function is “Generic” as the types aren’t know until runtime. If I was to switch from a dynamic language to a static one then I would have every right to question a lack of generics. Because if a type system can’t fully express the possible input and return types using things like Generics, Union types and Intersection types then that type system can’t fully express the things you can in a Dynamic language, so yes give me the benefits of Static typing please but that type system has to be useful.

> Wat? Newer and smaller process nodes are for lowering power consumption too. My newer and bigger tv requires less power than old one.
This is not just a matter of power consumption but of hardware turnover. Hipster webtechnologies like node.js and Electron basically motivate people to replace hardware often, because "modern" websites and Electron apps are tuned for the latest hardware. The hardware you buy has to be manufactured somehow and the one you don't use anymore has to go somewhere.
According to statistics, most people in the developed world won't event make it through 2 years without replacing their phone. It's preposterous.
> Raspberry nano does so much more than atmegas while requiring barely more power.
You are _very_ uninformed. First, it's Raspberry Pi Zero. Second, some embedded devices (like ESP8266 and many others) can be ridiculously low-power, Raspberry can never match that (altough that's not a usual usecase). Third, Raspberry can not be part of manufacturing process, the company behind Raspberry only supplies to hobbyists AFAIK. You can use other similar SoCs for manufacturing, but why would you do that since it's more costly both in terms of money and environmental impact, unless you really need it. Fourth, and this is something to which you're probably completely oblivious, Raspberry isn't real time, and thereby Raspberry as well as most other Linux-based SoCs are not suitable to wide variety of tasks, unless paired with a MCU like atmega or the like.
And even if Raspberry could actually replace MCUs (which it can't), what was even your point with it? It's not like Raspberry can run Electron feasibly. Especially the low-power variants are way way too underpowered to handle Electron's obesity. At best, you can run some simpler non-realtime-sensitive non-GUI JS apps on it.

Impressive effort, but why to do it in a hotel room instead of some nice and cozy lab?

I took about a full month off each of the last three years. Many of my coworkers did similarly.

Don't be disenheartened by downvotes. A lot of the hate stems from Go not implementung nice shiny features, and they're also fighting against Google threatening their favourite language with this https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&geo=US&q=Golang

This is true of company pensions but not social security which is why I would just expand SS - the company could pay into your pension like they pay into social security now, then at least it's an annuity. I like 401k's but they are highly variable and subject to all the psychological hobgoblins that investors face; subject to advisory and fund management fees (many of which you can't control because your employer almost universally controls who manages the 401k plan and what funds you can invest in).
I agree this leaves more room for individual negotiation. What's interesting to me is that not long ago this was seen as a net negative for programmers, who were supposedly introverts who were bad at self-promotion, etc.

Taxing solar energy? That...sounds like a ridiculous idea.
Considering you literally aren't making money by having solar energy itself, unless you are feeding it back into the grid for a profit, in which case wouldn't that profit just be taxed like literally any other income?
What are they gonna tax if you're living off-grid, anyway?
Of course, if you mean taxing private companies who are "selling" their energy, then that should be taxed the same way that any company is taxed.

This is a stupid video. The answer is that we are the only country that has a free market for labor. We hardly have any unions or regulations holding back labor.
Because of this, we have by far the most innovation in the world, and also by far the highest salaries in every profession, not just software engineering. Do you think there is lots of VC capital in healthcare that pays nurses the highest salaries in the world or something lol?

Say what you will about "rigid hierarchies" or whatever, but generally you *don't* want to randomly implement some interface whose signature happens to match, and also don't want some cryptic error if one of these signatures changes somewhere and suddenly everything breaks.
