I'm pessimistic about Go if they _don't_ change error handling. The handling of nil's and errors (by extension panic's) is purely conventional, and baked in to the language has no protection.

Author asserts that error handling is unsolved and therefor a solution shouldn't be attempted. I disagree, anything is better than Go's error handling now.
