From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Garbage collected languages will never not be at least slightly ick
Edit: I did not expect this to be so controversial, especially in regard to go, but I stand by my statement.
absurd take
Counterpoint: I've never used Go myself, but I love that Go apps usually seem to be statically-linked executables. I have a few utilities (such as runitor) that I 'deploy' to my servers by just copying them into /usr/local/bin using Ansible.
Go is awesome, yet a slight pain in the ass some ways, but you get used to it. I was doing DevOps stuff with it for 3 years. I like it so much more than python.
