It is mostly a rant about implementation issues of the Go 
library. What annoys me the most is the design of it: It looks 
like it were modeled after C standard library with a large extent 
of free functions where related things are placed in various 
packages, e.g. operations on strings are in a t least 3 different 
packages and are all free functions.

Ruby is to me really a really well done nice language, but the 
big winner is Python. With CSP in Go there is good CPU usage and 
scalability and people are quite productive with it. So that 
makes people choose Go. That's the way the of the world.
