Or a second language. Simple to learn makes it easy for one of 
any skill to pick it up.

I don't think any language forces one to think about design. Go 
just removes design options. D allows for the same quick fix, but 
it makes it 100x easier to work that quick fix into a design.

I'm not a fan of object oriented programming. Its strength is its 
weakness. It provides structure, structure is resistant to 
change. Change is what we do, problems come from change.
