I spend my life nowadays writing boilerplate in Go. The language and ecosystem is riddled with boilerplate and needing to repeat yourself. That said, I find the language plenty productive, but concise and reusable Go is not.
The rest of your post has nothing to do with the Java programming language and instead has to do with your frustration at the Java enterprise ecosystem, the desire to make things abstract for extendibility etc etc... considering Go is now being adopted heavily in those same enterprise shops and often being written by former Java developers I predict it will suffer a similar souring of public opinion by 2030 or so.
Wait, what?
