Was it really a potshot at Go? Maybe I read it incorrectly but what I thought was being said was that all the &quot;modern&quot; features that Julia&#x2F;Python&#x2F;other newer languages have are not available in Go (think stuff like list comprehensions). I don&#x27;t think that&#x27;s a potshot as it&#x27;s not really a negative, just a difference in design. Go doesn&#x27;t have those features and many times does not want those features, and there is nothing bad about that and nothing bad about stating such.
