i really fucking hate dependency management downloading packages from a centralized user submitted repository really grinds my fucking gears
this is like the one go flaw that makes me not use the language for absolutely everything
It's not centralized actually but they use caching servers iirc so it mostly is. Maybe there's a way to turn it off

@nyanide These are helpful: `go help environment`, `go env`, `echo FUCK YOU. Strongly worded letter to follow | sendmail rsc@golang.org`

@p @nyanide if only rsc was still involved. things will likely get full corporate bullshit now that he and the other old time go people aren't involved anymore. :blobcatgrimacing:

@bonifartius @p no rsc is still involved he was the opne that proposed to remove powerpc support

@nyanide @p ah, he stepped down as tech lead.

regarding powerpc, it's still listed on the build dashboard, just not as first class port build.golang.org/

@bonifartius @nyanide @p To be fair, removing ppc64 support isn't a good idea. Despite how niche it is, it's still used a lot in the enterprise world. I personally know people that need that support.

@phnt @p @nyanide almost nothing is tier 1 supported. bsds aren't, plan9 isn't, several architectures aren't. still they work fine (cf the dashboard) they just don't block releases.
