There are a few surprises of Go, but one thing that surprised me the most is the fact that an unrecovered panic in any goroutine will crash the whole program. To make things worse, you can only recover a panic in a goroutine that you spawn. So, you can't do anything to prevent a panic in a goroutine spawned by a third-party library crashing your whole program. The best you can do is to set up a supervisor to restart your program after crash.
