Didn’t Go come out of a language that was written for Plan9, thus pre-dating Rob Pike’s work at Google?

not that I recall but I may not be recalling correctly.

But certainly, anyone will bring their previous experience to the project, so there must be some Plan9 influence in there somewhere

Yes, Golang is superficially almost identical to Pike's Newsqueak.

They were literally using the Plan9 C compiler and linker.

Literally building the project out of the Plan 9 source code is very far from "bring[ing] their previous experience to the project, (...) some Plan9 influence in there somewhere"

It's a C compiler. Is your point that Go is influenced by C? ...

I think you should upgrade to a less badly quantized neural network model.

I don't see why you've been continually replying so impolitely. I've tried to give you the benefit of the doubt, but I see I've just wasted my time.

They started there, but it now is compiled by go itself.

Kind of, Limbo, written for Inferno, taking into consideration what made Alef's design for Plan 9 a failure, like not having garbage collection.
