Go, which is also known for its terrible error-handling.

Really? I have never seen a Go program to misbehave while not printing some meaningful output. It is possible but almost no one ignores the error parameter. Yet I have seen many, many Java and Python software which quit after the first Unhandled Exception. So often that I consider exceptions as the bad error handling mechanism.
