Fair enough. I'm not a professional programmer, so I guess I won't understand your frustration with long term maintenance of Go code. I do agree that it can be unnecessarily verbose. Writing something as simple as an http server takes a long time. Also, the dependency management sucks. It can't seem to decide if it wants to be declarative or not.

I do like that it's dead simple though, and that the standard library has most of the basic stuff. I've mostly replaced the need for Python with Go, for small CLI apps. Nowadays, I only use Python when I have to use some specific library, mostly for mathematical computing.
