gollark: Yes.
gollark: In JS you used to have to explicitly handle callbacks for all that stuff, and then used to have to have a lot of `.then` calls on promises, but now we have `async`/`await` so it looks basically like regular code.
gollark: One sort of nice but also sort of problematic thing about Go is that it uses green threads so operations like writing files look synchronous and you can write code accordingly, but are done asynchronously.
gollark: Strictly speaking it has generics, but hardcoded ones on arrays/channels/maps.
gollark: So you need `if err != nil { return err }` everywhere because it has no exceptions or stuff like `Option`.
