Am I wrong to have expected this to be about using Golang in Java, in some way?

Yes, "Go in a box" isn't exactly idiomatic english usage, in addition to the capitalisation mentioned be a sibling.


It's a stupid language name. You are correct.

I look forward to my next programming language ,"the"


I think you could get more attention to it by calling it "Al", short for "A language"


Had same expectation and read through half the article before realizing it was not Golang related.


I guess the title is confusing to non-native speakers, especially the part after the comma.


It's especially confusing for native English speakers because 'go' should only be capitalized when it's the first word in the sentence or being used as the name of something (such as the Go programming language)

And it's also confusing why people keep posting walled off articles on HN.


I'm a highly literate native speaker...


Go, not Golang.


Golang is called Go, though. "The Go Programming Language". So I see how in a programming-related blog post people can get confused by the word Go.
