Learning human languages is harder, because of grammar. Think about it this way, the US government says you can learn speak Spanish/Italian/French in 600 hours of practice. I'd argue you could be effective in Golang in < 40 hours of practice. Harder languages like Haskell would be a lot more hours but much less than 600.
