Well, that's news to me :)

Is it really any good?

Man all that memory management I did all those years ago was all for naught.

Still Go is a million times easier to write than C and will be easily performant enough for most tasks a developer would want to do.

It's always good to know what happens in your computer.

C gives you much more freedom in terms of formatting, it has no "implicit semicolon". Much less annoying in my opinion. (And the multiple return values of Go can be demanding.)
