On a deliberate hyperbole, reading assembly, each line is trivial, but it is very very hard to make sense of what does it do compared to a line of a high level language.

In my experience, golang is harder to read. It's overly verbose that it's hard to figure out the underlying logic. What can be written as

    items.filter(|n| n.price >= 10)
         .groupBy(|n| n.source)
         .mapValues(|v| v.sum()/v.length())

The problem is that even if golang added generics, they won't be composable. In their proposal, they proposed adding map/filter/etc functions in a separate package, not as functions on slices as a proper language would do. The same mistake they did with not having any functions on strings, but kept them in a separate package.

Also, they need to improve their anonymous function syntax.

    foo("param1", func(a int, b string) bool { return len(b) < a }

    foo("param1", |a, b| b.length() < a)
