I really don't want to be in a position to diss other languages but with 
some experience, I can tell you that I agree with blog posts about Go 
being a disservice to programmers.[1] It is a good language in the sense 
that you have to dial your intellectual self down, accept limitations, 
and be deaf to limitations sold as merits. I can understand "Go is 
limited because it lacks this and that" but I can't agree with "Go is 
great because it lacks this and that." Maybe with a little more time I 
will forget powerful features of other languages and be a content Go 
programmer. :)

A friend of mine who had left Weka a few months ago has joined a startup 
in the microservices domain. The company uses Go (and some Python). My 
friend looked at Go and then spent some time to learn Rust and decided 
to push D instead for "competitive edge." (Not my words! :) ) His 
argument was, why should we be wasting time with other languages. So he 
is using D to write the most critical piece of the product.

I must have missed that one. Please tell me more about it or give some 
links to read about it. All I know is there is always disagreement on 
how some new C++ features should be designed.
