    It's a webshit language. That's reason enough.

    But at least it doesn't pretend to be anything else unlike other webshit languages like Rust.

          not him but what counts as non web shit?
          servo engine that parses stuff = web shit? and firefox
          is https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk webshit?

          certainly this isn't

            Servo is arguably the closest to non webshit. And Mozilla completely abandoned it.

            Rustdesk is definitely webshit, the whole UI is HTML based.

            servo is part of the linux foundation now and they are putting servo code into firefox itself, slowly

            I would use Go if it wasn't reliant on Google forever. I don't know that much about it, but I heard the compiler auto updates, sends telemetry, etc.
            Anybody else worried about buying into the google ecosystem this hard to use Go as a source for everything? You know if Google gets bored of it tomorrow they'll just shut it down.

    I hate Go because introducing new languages is hard, the wider software ecosystem can only adopt so many new things in a given time frame and it takes a lot of effort to overcome inertia. Google managed to put in that effort but instead of getting something competently designed we got Go. Go feels like an early 1980s take on a "better C" because that's basically what it is: it was designed as a "better C" by people who haven't used anything invented after the 70s. It was designed by people who have lived under a rock for 40 years and made bizarre mistakes in their quest to reinvent a wheel everyone else has been using for 30 years, like combining dynamic arrays and spans into one type.

    What's more is most problems with Go would have been easily fixed before 1.0.0 and it'd have been a truly great language. Go is even a step back from C/C++ for concurrency because I can add thread safety annotations for clang to consume to prevent many concurrency bugs (also @GuardedBy in Java). Note that those clang improvements were driven by Google themselves, yet Go doesn't have anything except a forked version of tsan.

    Use Go if it puts money on the table, but don't confuse a language being """employable""" for being good. All the positive arguments for Go apply to PHP; I won't think you're an idiot for getting paid to do PHP but I will think you're an idiot if you start trying to convince me PHP is well designed or a good language, and both PHP and Go have embarrassingly bad standard libraries. Javascript is also very "employable" and look at it.

      that's their problem. just like they can't figure out how to actually use the fricking hardware they're given.
      All programs should use 1/50th the memory they do, and they should use at least 10x the CPUs they use.
      Browsers are insanely fricking pathetic, they know they're pathetic too which is why they split processes per tabs because that's all the tiny brained software gays can figure out.

    It's kind of like PHP, easy to get started and understand but then you realise it's quite messy.

      My top three hangups about go:

      * No named/optional params (defining a new functions for function chaining is verbose)
      * No default struct values that aren't just 0
      * No thing?.foo?.baz

      Otherwise, I am a fan of go as a platform.
