Here's a summary of the article:<p>* author cannot write portable C sockets code<p>* author cannot handle C/C++<p>* author believes his app would be too slow in Python, later abandons App, but retains his bias against Python<p>* Go has no parens for if/for<p>* Go has unicode support<p>* Go has closures "like salt shakers"<p>* Go is cohesively designed<p>* Go has nice libraries<p>Go may or may not be a good language, but this kind of argument is not going to win me over.
