Turns out Go is mostly Pascal with curly braces and nobody is calling Go out of date ;)

The engineers behind Go (and Plan 9) really loved Oberon, which influenced the UI of Plan 9 and Acme, and the developer ergonomics of Go.

I often told people that Go reminded me so obviously of TurboPascal (which I dearly used in my childhood) that I felt something "warm" when coding with it :-)

I enjoy using it, even though I didn't decide to use it as my main stack for various reasons.

Out of date is more than just syntax

As of this moment, I'll start calling Go out of date :D

I mean it doesn't even have generics or exceptions, get with the times.
