Seems author has added an update after 6 years:

"..Updated 2015-09-25: So, about six years later, people are still reading this. I'm not sure how to feel about this; Looking at it now, it's incoherent, badly argued, and a lot of the details are simply wrong. But 1000 hits a month indicate that people still get value out of it."

Whatever the author added, the original points still stand.

He might have changed his mind, but the facts are more stubborn.

Especially since he adds "Don't get me wrong; I still think that Go is a terrible language. I now work for a company that does a lot of it, and every time I touch it it depresses me a little more".
