Lies we tell ourselves to keep using Golang

I don't have the impression that interesting technical discussion about Go has been particularly scarce on HN over the years? But if you think that today's thread is different enough from yesterday's thread to be significantly higher-quality and not just generic (i.e. about something specifically interesting in the OP, rather than just another generic discussion of Go, even if it's a good generic discussion of Go), then I'd be willing to take another look - in that case the best thing would be to link to the subthreads that you think make the best case for it.

The and in the previous paragraph is important, though, because a core moderation principle is to de-emphasize generic discussion (and follow-up threads, and repetition generally) in favor of significant new information. Past explanations on all that, if anyone cares:

If you'll excuse me for not taking the time to gather hyperlinks, I think just scrolling down would suffice. Basically any of the next-most-highly-ranked top-level comments seem like decent candidates to me.

It's not clear to me that the discussion isn't still rather generic, but ok - if you or someone else wants to suggest an accurate, neutral, non-flamebaity title, we can give this thread a second chance.
