Comparing Go to Python for Small Scale Scripts and Tools: utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blo…

@golangweekly Sounds like he’s just more used to Python

@golangweekly Most devs that I know simply keep the code in Github. I have friends and colleagues who prefer Python because it's simple or the statically typed language scares them. I used to be there as well but I learned Go because I felt I wasn't growing in dev knowledge through Python.
