I get an early-UNIX / Bell-Labs vibe from the entire Go project. New Jersey all the way. The ecosystem is too sleek and practical to abandon. My 0.02€, ymmv.
New Jersey vs. what? I read about that phrase sometime earlier but forgot the rest of it. Is it vs. MIT / Stanford / West Coast / other? implying worse is better vs. other?
is it also related to neat vs. scruffy approaches in AI?
