#2Some very impressive wins here. Makes one wonder how much better things are going to get in the next few years. All without needing to change my programs!

I don't like Go, but I think I would use that.
But I'm ignorant: is the Go runtime built in any way to accomodate third party languages? Apart from writing an interepreter in Go, is there a good way to target it?

This is just an assumption, but it might be possible to translate to Go assembly and then use the Go toolchain.
Edit: https://github.com/minio/c2goasm seems to slightly go in that direction.

No it's not. That's why you haven't seen many alternate languages.
Something else is that the semantics of the Go language itself are purposely limited in ways that help build an efficient runtime easily. So even if you could target the Go runtime easily, it would impose limits to what the language can do as I understand.

I don't see the point, just use OCaml.

F# on Go, yeah would be killer! Some time when I have enough free time, if it doesn't exist already, I'd love to build.
