This is probably a good thing in many respects because Go doesn't have the baggage from yore, and it was created by some pretty smart and capable people.

As was Javascript plus Node.js two years ago, Ruby and RoR five years ago, etc.

You'd think that more reasons are required than 'it is new, doesn't have baggage in was created by smart people'.

Go isn't a framework. NodeJS is a framework, as is Rails. JavaScript and Ruby are very old languages, both laden with baggage.
node.js is not a framework, it's a platform written in c++ and js.
Yeah, you're right. Thanks for pointing that out.
