It's refreshing to write software with these languages and not having to deal with standard OO.

  > Both Rust and Go add some new and interesting ideas which, like languages before them, will initially attract programmers, but will ultimately earn both languages their share of derision, just as there are plenty of detractors for C++ and Java today.

      That's a bad cop out. There are widely used languages like c# and python that cause very little whining.

        Define "very little"...

          Language feature-wise, I think python 3 has very little complained about it. The chief complaints about python I hear are anything to do with packaging software and multi threading the second of which will hopefully be fixed by 3.7. Obviously, the 2 to 3 debacle is a constant source of grief, but I don't think that necessarily fits in with the subject at hand: language features that people contest over.
