Dealing with time on Go, whether simply unmarshalling string representations of time or handling timezone/locale converstions, is so incredibly convenient. Gone are the days when I'd have to remember the difference between "%MM", "%mm", and "%m".
I have gotten incredibly spoiled in this regard, and it's incredibly painful now to deal with time in Python or (even worse) Javascript[0].
This isn't even getting at the synchronization/timing features, which Go provides amazing support for as well.
