There's a million companies using Java, I doubt it'll stop being a good addition to your CV for a long time.

  That is exactly how I feel about Java: lots of companies use it, so I should know it. Go is a pleasure to work in. Java, less.

    > Go is a pleasure to work in. Java, less. Sometimes I wish I'd stopped at Go instead of then exploring Racket, Ocaml, Clojure, Haskell, and Scala so I could continue to hold your opinion. The end result still matters the most to me, but being so aware of how languages are getting in my way and making me do busywork is exhausting.

      I only compared Go with Java.

        I know, I was just adding on that I am sometimes jealous of you being able to say "Go is a pleasure to work in" when it isn't so much of a pleasure for me anymore.

  There's also a million companies using .NET. I bet roughly 92% of them are extremely bureaucratic, boring places to work for as well... Go is used in fewer places, but those places seem to be very interesting/exciting/dynamic places to work for. My kind of places. YMMV and all that...
