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?

a systems language

What the fuck does this even mean. Does it mean ``language in which most of the operating system is written in'' or ``language the kernel and the bits that directly caress the hardware is written in''?

If it's the former, then forced garbage collection is a great idea if you can turn it off for certain data structures. ``Most of the operating system'' should concentrate on more important things like usability and security rather than deallocating blocks of memory as soon as possible.

If it's the latter, then I definitely agree with you. But then again, I'm pretty sure nobody's tried to write a kernel in Go so far.
