Comment on Ask HN: Is Go used at Google? What do they use it for?parent

Comments

Thanks for the thoughts!

I’m curious about the split between where C++ is often found and where Java is used.

Is it more like less latency critical (or compute cost) services are in Java, and things like Search core are C++? Are there legacy reasons for one over the other?

If you were going to spend time gaining experience in Java or C++, with a long term plan of working on something really interesting and high impact there, which would it be?
