I'm not arguying that go has modern tech, but rather that it has modern sensibilities. This means not trying to force 90s style OOP, preferring static linking for easier deployment, including a build system and package manager with the compiler and preferring static types with type inference to dynamic types.

This differentiates go, rust, zig, odin etc., from languages like C++, Java, C#, Python etc. I think it makes sense to describe that difference as one of modern sensibilities.
