Ruby is a tool. It solves most tasks.
No single tool solves every problem. You find new ways to work when you change your tool.
Learning a second language makes you a better programmer.
Why pick Golang?
- Both work for the web.
- Both work for CLI tools.
- Go is simple for the computer.
- Go does not hide how the machine works.
- Setup is fast.
- The standard library is complete.
- You use fewer dependencies.
