Aleksei had some reasonable critique about Go, if you can handle his argumentative style. It got many people very defensive about Go, but TBH I don't think they did a great job defending it. Nevertheless you might find some interesting opinions there.

For me personally, if a language uses products/conjunctive type to represent errors AND return values, rather than sums/disjunctive types to represent errors OR return values, I'm out. That's failing silently.
