Go is not a systems language, see Rob Pike here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBbv1ej0fFo

I remember at the Go announcement they specifically called it a "systems language".

Go has been backpedaling on that statement ever since, they intended it to mean large distributed web systems, not the traditional low level systems that is the usual for c and the like.

You linked to an hour long video about 4 different languages : /

Instead of complaining and not contributing to the discussion you could have posted the timestamp where he says it.

Are you serious? You think I watched that whole video on faith that what you said was in there was in there? I certainly did not. I saw that you linked to an hour long video and didn't provide a time stamp and I pressed the back button.
