#2I think regardless of how each one of us sees Go, its adoption among DevOps (Docker, K8s), Apple and Microsoft means that just like with C and JavaScript it will become unavoidable to use it for certain tasks.

It literally houses you and puts food in your mouth? I'd like to see that.

#5The "easy to learn" argument is getting old. If the cognitive load never decreases, that's one thing, but initial ramp-up time shouldn't be a large determining factor. The MVC pattern, ADTs, functional programming, and so many other useful concepts were foreign at first, but have a substantial impact on how you think and work. With the exception of channels, Go doesn't add much when compared to other languages. Maybe that's a pragmatic choice, but it feels short-sighted to me.

#7I'm kind of wondering about why is there no production ready JavaScript/TS to exe compiler that packages all dependencies and creates a single executable - like go.
With the amount of mind share that js ecosystem has, I thought that would be a thing.
The keyword being "all dependencies"
