Go seems like a good option to begin with; you can do a lot with it, and it's not that complicated but does expose you to concepts like pointers.

There are plenty of very "serious" systems written in Go (e.g. Kubernetes), it's not a toy language.

Some time ago I saw a video of a Pigeon trying to impress a Falcon, perhaps this could be the reason

An interesting point for me was that they acknowledged the flaws in their previous benchmarks.

We owe a word on durability. The previous round of benchmark results ran with fsync disabled for every engine - leaving each database's writes in the OS page cache rather than flushed to disk. Every database in the comparison ran with the same setting, so nothing was being "fudged" relative to the other engines, but we didn't make the setting explicit, and the headline numbers ended up describing a workload that most production deployments would not likely run.This round is different. Every database in these benchmarks runs with full disk durability enabled - fsync on, WAL flushed on every commit, no buffered writes hiding behind the page cache. The configuration files for each engine are checked into the  so anyone can audit them. The numbers above are what each engine sustains when every committed transaction is on disk before the client gets an acknowledgement. That's slower than the cache-friendly numbers you'll find in some marketing posts, ours included, but it's the only honest way to compare databases that are going to outlive a power outage.

For anyone else that is interested in what came of him:

Xu was expelled from the CCP and sentenced to five years in prison. He lived the rest of his life exiled from Beijing and died in 2021 at the age of 85.

If people act like that on 196, please report it

… this is what the elites in Europe have come to… hedonism, lack of loyalty except to personal desires, no sense of responsibility to anything bigger than self-interest. Sadly, the USA is headed the same way if the liberals, leftists, progressives, socialists, and Democrats continue to have their way with our government, schools, and children…

… The socialist mindset has made Europeans lazy and entitled. …

I’m not sure what I expected from the comments but it certainly wasn’t that.

A new Linux vulnerability known as 'Looney Tunables' enables local attackers to gain root privileges by exploiting a buffer overflow weakness in the GNU C Library's ld.so dynamic loader.

It’s always memory management

Wouldn't it be better to have more specific tags like movies? e.g. "Sexual content", "Gore", "Death", "Violence" or for content that you truly want to avoid; "US Politics".

Better than coal or oil, it might even result in more R&D into reactor designs.
