It would have been better if several languages were used in 
comparison to Go.

Overall the blog post is a bit immature with little rigor and too 
much emotion. The code comparisons that aren't idiomatic for 
either language nor behaviorally equivalent.

It reads like a D-zealot had decided to write this blog before 
they even clicked the download link for the Go compiler. And so, 
their experience was never going to be anything but negative.

That said, Go is unpleasant and probably the most boring language 
I've had to write code in.
