> Finally, Go doesn't do anything to prevent data races, which are the biggest problem facing concurrent code. It actually makes data races easier than in languages like C++, because it has no concept of const, even as a lint. Race detectors have long existed in C++ as well, at least as far back as Helgrind. While it can't guarantee correctness outside of runtime (and even then, obviously only if whatever you are running actually triggers the race), a race detector has been part of the Go core since 2012[1].
