Go has ruined all other languages for me. I really fell in love with Gleam recently and was trying to implement a fun side project in it. The problem is I really don’t have enough time to learn the intricacies of it, with a startup, two kids, etc. As soon as I have to look at some syntax and really _think_ about what it’s doing every time I look at it, I lose interest. I kept trying and eventually implemented it in Go much faster. And while doing it in Go I kept wishing I could just use actors and whatever to make it simpler but, is it really simpler?


I haven't looked too deeply into it but I came across https://github.com/ergo-services/ergo not too long ago and thought it could be pretty interesting to try using OTP in Golang

Packaging a Go service in Docker and dumping it into k8s is probably the easier/better understood path but also deploying Go services onto an Erlang node just sounds more fun
