> Go also seems too low level for high level work - use TypeScript with all the nifty ES6 features, powerful type system, exceptions, etc.. You can solve most problems with if-else and loops. This wasn't something I was aware of before Go, but now I see how simple it is and can be. It strips the problem domain down to its core because you're forced to express the solution in the simplest form it can be. I know a lot of Go haters throw vitriol for exactly this reason (see fasterthanli.me/articles/lies-we-tell-ourselves-to-keep-using-golang), but the truth is simplicity really gets you 80% of the way and most of the time that's enough.
