  Being a modern language not stuck in the 60's language design is not feature bloat.

    Orthogonal concepts. Modern languages can be bloated.

      Or stuck in the pre-history of language design. If Go's design was perfect, its eco-system wouldn't feel like Java 1.0, full with libraries to replicate what should be language features to start with. The first time I saw "go generate" it was on Borland C++ 2.0 for MS-DOS, released around 1990.

        Can't lie. It's entertaining to watch people like you get emotional over a piece of technology.

          Not really, passional about language design and safety, indeed. Some of us care about advancing the state of art, instead of being stuck into the ways of the past.

            There it is. :)
