In other news "This hammer is trash because it doesn't screw in nails properly!"
I'm not interested in compilers, I hate writing code in low level languages, I cannot for the life of me understand assembly and Go works extremely well for what I want to do. I've used PHP/C#/Javascript my whole life and I'm more concerned about writing software than writing code. I don't want to nitpick on the tiny details of a running software with memory registers, cpu cycles, cache miss, etc unless there is an obvious bug or performance issue I need to fix. Those things should be abstracted away from me as a developer and go is a great compiled language that looks and feels like an interpreted language from a developer point of view.
