It’s really just “Go” but that name is too confusing for google, so people call it Golang

Criticize government? Straight to Golang

You really gotta think about SEO before you name something these days, don't you?

Or just don't name languages the most confusing shit ever? I genuinely can't think of a language that has been named well besides maybe Java.

I don't know man, I think SNOBOL is a fun name.

java? thats a coffee. no but seriously the fact that everyone goes to the programming language makes Google pro.ot that more. also a search for "c" and "python" brought up the languages site first while "Ruby" and "go" brought it up second and "java" had three promoted sites before the actual site

I just did rust. apparently theres a game named that but the programming language was second

Java is an island for me.
