redefining infix, postfix and prefix operators on anything other than value types is a bad game, as is macros - they make it so when reading the code you have to go through two things to remember instead of just one, and then spread that out to a whole project

i'd say the thing you missed is why make another language when there is already a pretty much perfect one?

for me, there is #bitcoin and then there is #golang and these are two things that really don't need to be changed without inordinately long processes of deliberation, testing and modeling
