Python: lambda functions can only have one expression.
Python: white space is important.
Java: generics, type erasure.
Java: checked exceptions.
Go: no generics.
Go: error handling if statements.
JavaScript: ecosystem is constantly migrating to some new hype technologies, it's difficult to keep the pace.

"Python: white space is important." Its use of indentation for code block annoyed me.
If it doesn't want to use curly braces like in C family, it just can adopt begin...end statement from Pascal.

There is generics in current version of Go.
