D

D will become popular, once it becomes standardized. Then again, D will never be standardized, due to utterly pointless redundancy. :3

I admit that Go is an interesting language with interesting concepts, but the fact that Go ships its own C compiler, instead of using the system compiler (GCC, MinGW, VisualStudio cl.exe, Clang, w/e) is highly disappointing.

Apart from that, The compiler apparently creates non-standard ELF binaries, that seem to be incompatible with ldd, gdb, valgrind and co.

And all that could have been prevented if Go would feed the C stuff to the system compiler...

Google really tries to reinvent the wheel every damn time, sigh.
