I Do Not Like Go - I use Go at my current day job. I've gotten pretty familiar with it. I do not like it, and its popularity is baffling to me
I've never met a language lead so openly hostile to the idea of developer ergonomics. To pick one example, Rob Pike has been repeatedly and openly hostile to any discussion of syntax highlighting on the Go playground. In response to reasonably-phrased user questions, his public answers have been disdainful and disrespectful:
Gofmt was written to reduce the number of pointless discussions about code formatting. It succeeded admirably. I'm sad to say it had no effect whatsoever on the number of pointless discussions about syntax highlighting, or as I prefer to call it, spitzensparken blinkelichtzen.
