And just what point is that? The article states that "You see, GOPATH crossed a line. " Doesn't explain what that line is and then goes on to say that Golang is an awesome and simple language.
"...but with GOPATH its opinions extended beyond my Go work and into the rest of my system. [...] I already have opinions about how to use my computer."
Not sure I agree with that statement. Yes Golang has an opinion on where it wants you to keep your go code but it dosen't effect the rest of your system, just your go work.
Sure, but there are 100 other languages out there that do the same thing as Go but don't have an opinion about the organization of my system. I'd rather just use one of those, and really I don't think I'm missing out on much by not using Go.
