why the fuck would anyone use GO?

Its 2x slower than javascript, yet the syntax is even shittier http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u32/benchmark.php?test=all&lang=go&lang2=v8

has no polymorphism http://golangtutorials.blogspot.com/2011/06/polymorphism-in-go.html

shit libraries https://github.com/languages/Go

every language is getting more functional. lambdas/listcomps/generators and infinite lists are being added to languages like C++/javascript/python, while go eschews every advance in language design since 1960

I agree, Rust is where it's at, they use every key on the keyboard for their syntax. No character is felt left out in that language. We should be doing more of that.
