Not is it not. Go is a shitty C. Try writing a kernel and Go and see what happens.

Oh, whoops. I posted a comment to the wrong thread! (There, the op is actually a 16 year old who is surprised Haskell is a better Haskell than Go.)

Try writing a kernel and Go and see what happens.

It's not that kind of language. A kernel written in Haskell would be very interesting, however.
