Similar opinion. The only two things I consider worthy at this point are C and Python. Everything else seems to have lost the balance of compromise, stability, low API and language volatility, the ability to retain it and it's API in mind effectively and tool flexibility. On the Go front I have to say I like the language but not the rigidity which quite frankly gets in the way a lot of the time and turns minor experiments and refactoring into a time consuming nightmare. On the C# front, I've been writing C# since before the compile toolchain was even RTM and I dislike every moment now. It has become a bloated mess of a language and the supporting frameworks are impossible to keep track of and up to date. Edit: I prefer SBCL over everything really but that's another universe :)
