When you have to implement things in a "large" language after writing a similar one in Go you'll find yourself coding with a very minimalistic set of objectives. It's a Go-flavored pythonism of sorts. Things like explicit error handling, concurrency, maybe even memory management, will make their way deeper into your work flow and thought processes then they did before, especially if the language you are now using doesn't emphasize them to begin with. It's this reason why I think learning as many languages as possible is a good thing. I can't imagine what'd I'd be missing out on if I was stuck programming Java 6 for a decade.
