Just a minor note on Go vs C++. C++14 specification: 1354 pages. Go specification: 50 pages.

    Not sure why this is downvoted. It pretty clearly demonstrates the point that there is a such thing as being too simple, and that simplicity for its own sake is not a virtue.

  R5RS is 40 pages and you can do so much more in that language.

  for c++ spec, many are due to back compatibility. if you stick to modern c++ for new projects, it's much concise with much less pages.

    Can you link to such a document (one that details the spec for only recent versions of C++)?
