This is not a dig at Go and this will be controversial but I so struggle to see what problem or area Go is solving outside of CSP. It's a nice language it just feels far too simple and I am really convinced of it as a systems language over Modern C++ and if you want that alternative then we have our rather oxidized friend that seems to more substantial. That's just my take.

I code Go at work. I've been using it for just over 3 years. I really like it. I prefer Java, but Go is a much more ergonomic C and its a very pragmatic language. Except for the *%!@ error system, that can burn in hell.
