Do you like Go?

I am thinking to give it a try, looks like the C of XXI century, and the mascot was created by the same author of Glenda..

Also the go get is pretty trendy, almost like npm, bundler or cpan!

so, how many of you are already using it?

non-optional garbage collection while claiming to be a systems language

SHIT.

I also remember that its linking style is complete shit and would be non-trivial to fix. Something about how cgo can only link statically or something. Everything else I've heard about it is cutesy shit like `put this link to a github page in your makefile and it will automagically work'<sup>1</sup> and `the compiler comes with a code beautifier!'.
