twenty years from now you will only find 32-bit architectures in museums, so i'm not sure why you are bringing this up (everyone who works with go has heard it numerous times before and rightly sees it as a nonissue)

For people who have to build 32-bit apps now, this could be a real issue so it's worth flagging it. However, it seems to have been solved to some extent since I last looked at it.

you mean like there are no 8 bit architectures being used any longer?

ohh, I guess you haven't heard that there are more 8 bit processors being built and sold today than ever before, far more 8 bit processors are sold than 32 bit processors.

Now, it's true you don't see general purpose computers being sold with 8 bit processors any longer, but that's not the same as "only found in museums"
