I agree that Python's `with` is nicer than Go's `defer` (and I use both languages almost daily). I'm not sure I agree that languages seem to need exceptions--stack traces in the presence of errors are certainly handy, and there's certainly a case for panicking, and it's arguably more ergonomic to have syntax or type-system support for eliminating error-handling boilerplate, but I still prefer the simplicity of returned errors. That said, I'm really interested to hear different view points.
