As someone who is fairly enthusiastic about Go and has implemented a few livelihood-providing production systems in it I am baffled by the number of people who keep trying to use it for application (and especially web application) development.<p>I mean it does feel like superpower when applied to tasks you&#x27;d previously have to use C for. But have you tried any of the modern web development stacks? They are like a zillion times more productive. Hint: PHP is not one of those.<p>I guess some people just can&#x27;t get by without the iron hand of the compiler :)
