gollark: Plus the concurrency features are really overhyped. I mean, channels are neat, but not amazing, and there are libraries, and green threads... same thing.
gollark: Oh, and it goes for looking simple over actually being simple and consistent, hence the horrible verbosity.
gollark: *cough*generics*cough*
gollark: I agree with the Go thing. It seems to be designed so that you can pick it up quickly, but also seems to have the mentality that the people actually using it (as opposed to the implementors) can't be trusted with any advanced features.
gollark: People *use* LISPs?
