The philosophy of keeping things simple. I find the concurrency
mechanism quite Pythonic.
Moreover Go interfaces are quite akin to Python duck typing, but
better. There also things which are quite different from Python e.g.
the attitude towards exceptions. In theory Go should be akin to C,
but my gut feeling is that in practice programming in it should not
feel too much different from
programming in Python (but I do not have first hand experience).
