Did Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson suffer a stroke or brain aneurysm while creating this; or were they replaced by aliens; or, perhaps this is just their way of shitting on Google and having a laugh -who would on earth has any right to question them??

Oberon is infinitely better because it wasn't designed by quacks
Wyatt Bennett
The fuck you going on about? Go is Rob pikes freak
Alexander Hall
They were probably going senile.
Jason Miller
Go is not a replacement of C, stop this meme. Nothing with GC can replace C.
Jose Walker
all of those are positive things
ken was as instrumental as rob. ritche was also important because go derives strongly from his language limbo.

Go is just a continuation of C principles. C was not intended to give you a sense of being a pro hacker, it's just a straightforward general purpose programming language, and so is Go. It doesn't matter that their viable use cases don't have 100% overlap.

>>the variable name comes before the type >>variables declaration have type inference Nothing wrong with these.
Benjamin Cooper
Go is unparalleled for development of low level web stuff
Blake Harris
Does it still not have generics?
Jaxson Barnes
compose and use interfaces
Brayden Hughes
>>has goto statements >>functions return multiple values >>the variable name comes before the type >>variables declaration have type inference I don't see anything wrong with these
Elijah Gomez
Goto statements is one of the best functions. It's simple, if this then goto this. No fucking around.
Josiah Russell
>>functions return multiple values whats wrong with this?
Not only is there nothing wrong with anything you listed, any modern language without these features is probably garbage.
Connor Cooper
For some odd reason 90% of go's detractors turn out to be haskell spergs who would never use a minimalist language anyhow but nonetheless insist that it provide generic tuples for multiple returns through a fully riced-out type system with HKT's/algebraic data types/etc instead of sidestepping needless abstractions by way of language builtins for simplifying common use cases.
Juan Peterson
Go is the best scripting language from 1995, and it's actually better than Python and Tcl.
