the narrow focus of Go's users towards network servers is frustrating. many applications especially games and GUIs benefit from the kind of simplifications you can do with CSP concurrency. it's one of the biggest bugbears i have, about the language. i kinda sorta almost solved it, to a reasonable degree, with a GUI toolkit i was building some time ago. i just updated its dependencies finally the day before yesterday. gonna amuse myself with that. the hard task that had blocked me from resuming it is now done. took only a few hours, breaking api's are hell when you don't have an LLM to help. regarding the text thing, that seems like such a simple thing to charge for it seems a bit disgusting considering. when i am deep in a book, ask me about it and you will regret it, if you have something you need to do. i can read a dozen pages and then talk for an hour about it, if it's interesting.
