Simplicity for simplicity's sake isn't a virtue. I often feel that Go chooses that path ideologically, whereas real world use cases should have more innings (yes, it's the generics and shitty type system thing again, I'm not expecting us to agree, I'm just pointing it out).

To that end, Go doesn't work for me. I use a fairly straightforward stack atop the JVM because I can hold the whole thing in my head (nothing in either Dropwizard or Play is deep magic) and have the expressiveness in Scala to be clear with my code.
