I programmed in about a dozen different languages before Go. None of them had generics. I use Go, love it, and never noticed anything missing when I write everything from command-line tools to complex servers. I've always been puzzled when people represented the lack of generics to be a flaw in Go, sometimes to the point that they claimed the language to be unusable. I personally hope that simplicity continues to rule the governing body of Go and we never get a feature that gives Go more than one obvious way to do things. This would violate the "Lego" policy of the Go group, which is to give us everything we need to build everything we want -- not everything we want.
