gollark: Yes, but it appears somewhat useful for the same tasks of building simple utilities, and they're rather similar in their... bad error handling, bad typing, and reasonably fast compilation.

gollark: I mean, Go is a decent C replacement, sure.

gollark: Some stuff is less imperfect, i.e. better.

gollark: ... no, some are really just worse, and Go isn't *simple*.

gollark: Go's flaws are mostly in the language *itself*, and not workaroundable that way.
