I agree with you about Go. I hate it, but we started it using it at work because it's "easy".

It's also easy to walk across a busy road without checking but it's still a fucking stupid thing to do.

I quite like your 2020 rant. I also quite like Go. I think you make your points quite well even if I don't feel compelled to feel the same way you do after reading them. A detailed, finnicky, nitpicky critique like this makes for good insightful reading.
