Mild Spoilers.

I will always have a special place for Babylon 5. One time I was watching it with my father who lived under a dictatorship, watched a scene with Mr Morden and Lando, immediately said "this kind of talk is meant to put people against other people". He didn't care much for the extraterrestrial part of the show but was very interested in portrayal of authoritarianism.

In Go, if one would ignore the error, it could result in a panic or the program would continue with some unexpected state. Go projects work on an honour system and either return Nils with errors or empty structs.

Pprof doesn't tell you if something was leaked aka still around.

I fixed a leak recently because of misuse of a slice with code like

slice = append(slice[1:], newElement)

I only figured it out by looking at the pprof heap endpoint output and noticed there were multiple duplicate entries.

Oh absolutely, whenever i use anything, I have to see how to integrate cancellation and now context is everywhere just for this.

It gets overly verbose because of "simplicity"

I accidentally tried to fly with a small kids juice box and sunscreen. They throw your stuff into a machine.

I would've expect that they take a sample from inside but they just scanned the outside

Nim fits a lot of Go's use cases. It is way more niche though.
