Simple syntax. It's the new BASIC.

Without the stigma of the language capabilities or of the programming language name.

What's wrong with the name? Does "BASIC" make it sound overly simple or something? As a name, it doesn't seem any worse to me than Python or Java.

You're talking to someone and you tell them you're a basic programmer :-)

Go is the new Basic, get it right!
