I'm sorry but if you say "unmarshal" instead of "parse" or "deserialize" I am incapable of imagining you as anything other than a 60yo Java user

@mildsunrise Golang uses that lingo too :(

@kitten especially weird given golang's vibe, but i guess it makes sense given how much Google likes java

@mildsunrise @kitten it’s not Google culture, it’s Bell Labs

@robpike essentially took Inferno’s Limbo language, added goroutines (the “routine” terminology was already there btw) and made it compilable — that’s what Go is

I’m not aware Limbo (or Alef for that matter) had JSON, XML or anything (un)marshalling tho, so it would be kinda neat to hear from him I guess
