The problem with "it feels like a dynamic language" meaning "you probably won't hate it" is that it's somewhat insulting to existing statically-typed languages that are actually pleasant. It sounds all right if you've only ever been exposed to Java or C, but it's not like Go is the first language to have a good type system. It's especially odd considering Go's inference isn't able to handle all the types in even such a short sample.
