Go removes so much of the expressive power that writing it after Python is a bit of a pain.

OTOH I realize that many people don't use that expressive power and are happy with copy-pasting stuff.

I’m waiting for generics to land before I return to Go.

One thing I immediately miss from Python after using Go is building a dict (e.g. for writing JSON values). I had to type map[string]interface{} so many times =P
