Its good. Its a high level language with garbage collection, great concurrency and without dependencies to a huge runtime.

and what do you suggest?

if err != nil {
    if err != nil {
        if err != nil {
        }
    }
}

lolno, it's run by sjws.

After using Node, PHP, Ruby, and Python for web development, Go is breath of fresh air.

it's a nice language to read, somewhat annoying to write, and if you use it you're required to complain about it even if you enjoy it

>>52064786
It has automatic memory management, modules and memory safety. Its definitely not as low level as C or C++.

oh look another hipster faggot

>>52064688
I did. Its lack of generics is a massive pain in the ass.

I'd rather use a JVM language than Golang. Goroutines seem to encourage screwy deadlock prone behavior.

>>52065765
Their race detector is pretty decent actually.

But yeah, JVM languages are superior to Go in most ways, except memory use and JRE dependency. Go is really too imperative and too stripped down.
