From the comments: &quot;Why do people have to &quot;leave&quot; technologies? Why can&#x27;t they just add new technologies to their arsenals without dramatic quitting blog posts? You don&#x27;t see musicians who have just learned to play the guitar writing &quot;why I&#x27;m leaving the piano&quot; posts. Go is great; Node.js is great; some JVM languages are fine; .NET has a hell of a lot going for it too. Evaluate your options at the start of every project and use the best tool for the job at hand.&quot;
