>phasing out go (chad language) for rust (troon language)
now I hate discord even more
@theorytoe no seriously go back, no clue why hating rust because muh tranny lang like /g/ told me to say. they switch because they are a massive platform and Go's memory management actually only scales so high. IIRC lots of Go GC spikes which does have an impact when working with massive loads

@neko @theorytoe i have the vague suspicion that if go nanosecond gc pauses gives you a problem it almost universally is a "you are holding it wrong"-problem.

@bonifartius @theorytoe it might be because they have to handle up to nearly several million requests and millions of sessions per day?

But yes they couldve probably just been using Go like shit, its a possibility, im sure there are lots of Go services, maybe even Google

@neko @theorytoe i sincerely hope they have better engineering than processing the millions of requests/sessions with one go process :P this feels like something which lends very well to horizontal scaling.
