> Yes, writing Lisp is much more "fun" than writing Go for me. But writing Go is much more productive and maintainable (both for solo projects and for larger groups).
Not sure about this statement. As the OP said in order to trick the anti-features of go you need to come up with super verbose syntax. Which is easy that's true but when the project tends to be quite big the mission becomes hard.
Also the "go get" thing is neat for small projects but for larger project IMHO is just broken. Godeps or few sh scripts can alleviate this but definitely is something needed to be addressed.
