Thanks for your feedback. We'll correct that thing about Python as soon as possible. However please agree with me that with an educational background of C/C++, learning Go was easier than learning Python.
I used to be a C++ dev for 10 years. I tried to learn go after hearing about how great it is. IMO - it's a hot garbage practical joke made by googlers that became popular because it was made by googlers and then it was too late to tell its was a prank. It's a corrupt amalgam of "clever hacks" and "only one good way to do things - my way".
Its concurrency is awful, and makes shooting oneselves in a foot easy. Effective go teaching you how to basically make mutex using channels is just a practical joke, right?
Go's success in the cloud native infrastructure is really impressive - the language has enjoyed widespread adoption in many large engineering orgs. Having a hard time seeing where you're coming from when you talk about a "hot garbage practical joke"
JavaScript is an awful language, we all can agree on that, right? But it has reached universal adoption, it's widespread from in-app scripts, through embedded devices, back-end services and front-end.
I have the same opinion on Go - it's awful, it fails to deliver its promises, but it became popular because it was "a google thing".
Google itself supports go internally, but it is nowhere near being ubiquitous or even recommended - I think that tells you something about it too.

As for C++ and libraries - Boost was and is a big one. Want HTTP? There's a full server implementation you can reuse easily https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0/doc/html/boost_asio/ex...
