Wife asked me to comment on this. I disagree with every word in the thread, down to the "the"s and "and"s.https://twitter.com/unclebobmartin/status/1312022954893602818 …
my understanding is that certain languages entirely prevent memory corruption bugs, not just "make them obvious"

Yes. That's rust. go is garbage collected, which helps, but isn't at all the same sort of revolutionary, and their (deliberate, rationally trade-off based) decision to require casting to 'interface{}' a bunch to keep the type system simple means you can still blow your foot off.

I find go becomes clearest if I consider it as a language carefully designed to be reasonably fast, reasonably safe, reasonably concurrent, and unreasonably easy for a freshly hired CS grad to drop into a large codebase and find everything sufficiently obvious to get started.
