For a more true comparison with external scripting runtimes one can do: go run main.go

Although this would be ill-advised, kind of like PHP in general..

I'm not sure what you mean. Isn't this equivalent to `go build main.go && ./main`?

It is. Not sure if the other guy has ever used Go.

Hmm it would seem so, I could of sworn it was different, my bad.
