@jmoiron @davecheney people don't need an invite; show me a place that structure has been relaxed (interface{}, struct tags) and I'll show you abuse

@jmoiron @chimeracoder @davecheney @DOTGO @GopherConIndia @GopherConAE +1 I wrote a love letter to it
@jmoiron @calebspare I find it usually has a bit of an edge to it, something like a raw turnip but with the character of peppercorns.
@jmoiron https://t.co/fUwRZ2zyHj tons of programs crash due to missing config schemas because the library sends SIGTRAP instead of an error
@jmoiron @davecheney well I'm trying :)
@jmoiron @davecheney it's unintuitive but i suspect that reusable components are harder to design; solving the _right_ 90% of a big problem is tough
@jmoiron RT @mipsytipsy: ohai, @garethr says "distsys monitoring is becoming a commoditized specialty skill set, and you aren't the best at it." PRE…
@jmoiron Honestly, I'm starting to think there's more going on here than just misfortune. #Android
@jmoiron @rob_pike we must all be reminded of from time to time
@jmoiron @amontalenti we do it w/ other signalling like var names; long ones great across files/modules/packages, awful locally eg. in a small func
@jmoiron @amontalenti not outright, but docs aren't a contract like types are; even optional ones.. I'd _consider_ it based on "locality" though?
@jmoiron @amontalenti as in, I don't even trust _myself_ to annotate in all the places it'l be beneficial for legibility later
@jmoiron @amontalenti ok interesting, i've come to question leaving that to judgement, I seldom "need" types when writing, often do when read/editing
@jmoiron @amontalenti do you disagree with Guido et-al's comments about readability in the mypy pycon talk? re: https://t.co/BbX7zOaWDL
@jmoiron "I suspect that what they add to the cost of learning and using the language is not repaid in greater expressiveness."
@jmoiron @amontalenti related-ish: my recent thing on static types https://t.co/tcMtHUxAmc and rob pike on variable naming https://t.co/QLJMboS6fi
@jmoiron Check out some programming fonts, "wow these look great!", set it up in vim, "meh.." back to Consolas.
