Is there anything Golang can't do fairly well with a small code base? Damn, I wish I were still 20 and had shitloads of time on my hands to invest in learning the ins and outs of the language.
As an aside, this project is interesting. I've been kinda curious of experimenting on a project like this on my own. However, I wish the author's documentation opened with what ideas from what papers inspired the project.
This should be an easy weekend read http://www.golang-book.com/
At 20, I just did whatever the hell I wanted, bummed around Europe before figuring out where to do my masters. Responsibility was not paramount on my mind. Maybe 20 something's today are different, but not the ones I know, it's still all about having fun, learning new stuff and exploring the possibilities.
I fail to see how anyone could not have understood what the comment meant.
