[generics] opposed

[Ashton Cummings]

My first impression of Go not having generics was negative. I came from C#, Java, typescript, C++, and a few other languages that had generics. So, learning Go and finding that it did not have it, was disappointing. 1 year later and i am still using Go. However, my opinion has changed. I have slowly adapted the Go mindset. Keep it simple. Go has this ability to just keep things super simple. Easy to read and easy to implement. No overly complicated designs, just simple code. I have really enjoyed working with it. Adding generics to Go does not destroy that "keep it simple" mindset, but i do believe it will add complexity to code that doesn't really need to be there.

I currently oppose it. However, i am open minded and can be convinced to be happy about the change. Either way, i am still going to be using Go. =)

"Doesn't really need to be there" is highly subjective
