This just happened to me. I wanted to run a goroutine and then not exit the program, so I ran an empty for loop and it didn’t work. Would a for{ continue } have work?
`for { continue }` is semantically equivalent to `for {}` since the closing bracket of the loop block implies a `continue`.
As a sibling correctly notes, `select {}` is what you want to do instead. You need to do something that can block the goroutine in such a way that control returns to the scheduler. Selecting is one of those ways.
