I thought that Go might take more territory from Python, especially with generics, but now I'm settling on Python<->gRPC<->Go backends for the foreseeable future.

Go will never be as expressive as Python -- for good reasons -- which is important for high-level data science (ORMs, DataFrames, viz, NNs, etc).



You mean the domains that make use of Fortran, C++, Chapel, Julia? Yep no place for Go there.
