&quot;...Go doesn&#x27;t do enough for the programmer&quot;<p>Seems like a &quot;boo Go&quot; echo chamber in here, but as someone that moved their entire backend infrastructure to Go, the offering was so compelling it was worth going against common wisdom and actually rewriting huge pieces of infrastructure code. And I&#x27;m hardly alone - many huge companies felt the same value proposition and made the same decisions.<p>Go isn&#x27;t perfect for many things, but where it&#x27;s placed itself - among often headless networking infrastructure projects and backends, it&#x27;s exceedingly good at what it offers.<p>Edit: had repeated myself.
