Why Go's Error Handling Is Awesome

While I'm no great fan of Go's error handling, I've not found this to be an issue. The compiler yells at you if you forget. You'd have to explicitly ignore the error by underscoring it to "forget" it.

No it doesn't:

    err := foo()
    if err != nil {...}
    err = bar() // accidentally ignored
    err = baz()
    if err != nil {...}
