10 years ago we started out with Python. We switched to Go probably 8 years back. I think my little startup would have utterly failed without Go. Thx google :)

But yes Enums are so much nicer in Kotlin vs Go. That's true, it doesn't impact productivity much, but he has a point.

I think some pythonistas maybe got their feeling hurt by your comment causing it to grey out.

Over the last 25 years in the SaaS world, I have never seen python evolve into a system that is easy to reason about and debug. It lets you do too many things. In over 30 cases, I have seen teams deliver better software faster in Go after replacing their Python.
