@hjk101 a certain os whose Name Windows shall not be named to protect from being bullied still has the 256 char limit of MAX_PATH... They're gonna be in trouble.

I recall a HN article about how Rust's module system sucks because the unit of compilation is separate from the hierarchy and so complex modules are tolerated, whereas Go encourages small self-contained modules by tying the unit of compilation to the folder structure.
Apparently complexity is sometimes just a fact and the failure to handle it cannot be painted as a feature. -
@lorentz Actually we learned from the mistakes of Java and stopped tying code to the file system a long time ago. Seems like Go is repeating the mistakes from the past and is glad about it.
