I saw a transcript of Rob Pike's "Less is More" where he says "What it says is that he finds writing containers like lists of ints and maps of strings an unbearable burden. I find that an odd claim. I spend very little of my programming time struggling with those issues, even in languages without generic types." and I had literally not three days before fixed a bug in somebody's c++ code caused by using their own hand-rolled stack class instead of std::stack, so I'm not inclied to be charitable on go's lack of generics.
