Some comments here: "I'm at age XX, thought about quitting, but now am rediscovering fun in programming". Go is a good fit here. I discovered Go around 10 years ago, and it was a point in my career where I was fed up with the overgrowing complexity of the mainstream languages and cultures around them. I was seriously considering switching to other fields. Go has changed that direction 180 degrees.
