Happy to hear that you found my answer balanced :)

> What would you say are the advantages of Nim over a language like Go? I see a lot of similar "value add" statements.

In all fairness I haven't given Go a proper try. But my main problems with it, based on what I've seen of it, are the following:

* Lack of generics

* Lack of exceptions

* I prefer the Python-like syntax of Nim

* Metaprogramming in Nim is fun and powerful

* Lack of (official) package manager
