> I like Go. I use it for a number of things (including this blog, at the time of writing). Go is useful. With that said, Go is not a good language. It's not bad; it's just not good.

It's all right there. Go has good uses. But it's not good for some things including as an example for a 'good' (for some definition of good) typed language.

Also Go has generics: array/slice, map, channel. You just can't create others.
