I'm not a fan of Go, its syntax, or Rob Pike in the slightest but aren't go-routines as first-class/ default at least an improvement over most Algol-derived languages' support for concurrent execution models? In the final analysis, this is hardly enough to convince me to use the language (as I've never found concurrency difficult in any other language to begin with and there are better ways than go-routines to make it 'easy'); however, I'm probably not in the target audience. My impression is that Pike is endeavoring to create for his new corporate overlords a language that fungible enterprise developers can be at home in. And, it probably is better than Java.
