Can you elaborate on why?

  Writing code that does a lot of IO gets very repetetive quick - `if err != nil` is just stupid. Different libraries have different conventions on matching on errors. Then there's the inability to know if an interface pointer is valid. Comments that change the way the code is built. The type system felt like it was forcing me to expose either interfaces that are either too restrictive or too open.

    So the whole "quitting smoking" thing was...a happy coincidence? Did you go cold turkey? What were the nicotine withdrawal nightmares like? I had fierce ones when I quit

      Switching jobs helped a lot. Not writing Go, I think definitely helped.
