To you maybe, but Go is running a large amount of internet infrastructure today.
replyHow does that relate to Go being a verbose language?
replyIts not verbose to some of us. It is explicit in what it does, meaning I don't have to wonder if there's syntatic sugar hiding intent. Drastically more minimal than equivalent code in other languages.
replyMaybe not a perfect example but it’s more lightweight than Java at least haha
replyIf by lightweight you mean verbosity, then absolutely no.
replyIn go every third line is a noisy if err check.
Well LLMs are made to be extremely verbose so it's a good match!
replyI think there's a huge range here - ChatGPT to me seems extra verbose on the web version, but when running with Codex it seems extra terse.
replyClaude seems more consistently _concise_ to me, both in web and cli versions. But who knows, after 12 months of stuff it could be me who is hallucinating...
