Exceptions (or similar constructs using jmp operators) are necessary to build reliable software. They are often more efficient than the alternatives, like passing around error codes to which Go does not offer anything else. See
>>177-san's comments about Go's performance, or lack thereof. This once again dispels ``compiled to platform menas fast,'' yet another bad idea Go was built around. I don't particularly like Java anyway (I prefer C++). Java has its own problems, but it's a lot better than Go. You're not doing Go any favors by criticizing Java.
