gollark: > Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.
gollark: Yes it is. Generally, it is nice if you don't have to just completely switch languages for some types of problem, in what is treated/marketed as a general purpose language.
gollark: It has more edge cases and weird quirks than, say, lisps.
gollark: Go isn't actually simple, though.
gollark: Yes, I'm aware. Go was seemingly written for developers who could not be trusted with any flexibility whatsoever.
