Comment Shame on Google (Score 1) 512
This is scandalous! I would expect better from a company with the motto "Don't be evil." Google should make it absolute clear that this new language is not Go!
I propose they rename it to !Go.
Comment They Do Serve a Purpose (Score 1) 620
I have to say that now I regret that the syntax is so clumsy. I would like http://www.example.com/foo/bar/baz to be just written http:com/example/foo/bar/baz where the client would figure out that www.example.com existed and was the server to contact. But it is too late now. It turned out the shorthand "//www.example.com/foo/bar/baz" is rarely used and so we could dispense with the "//".
I would also like to add that protocol relative URI are useful. I'm sure some of you are familar with the hideous JavaScript Google recommend using for embedding Analytics into your HTML. It would make much more sense to source the file with a protocol-relative URI.
