[FRIAM] The Go Programming Language

Has anyone tried Google's go language? http://golang.org/ Google makes the same case for it as chrome: its been 10 years since a system language has been created! Mainly the concern is multi-core & gc and an architecture for large distributed systems. I just installed on my macbook: h

Then there's 'wei chi' and others variants. Lots of western countries use 'go' as a root: jeu de go, the game of go, spiel go, el juego de go and so on. The Japense romanji is 'igo' being the source. The late Taiwanese philanthropist Ing Chang-ki may have had a point in wanting us to spell i

The ancient Asian game was referred to as "yi" by Confucius and Mencius. it only spread to Japan and became known as "go" in the second millennium of its existence. The best international players call the game "weiqi" (Chinese) or "baduk" (Korean). -- rec -- On Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 3:54 PM, Ro
