ditto for Go. Huge fan, but it does involve a lot of boilerplate.

Not that I think that's a bad thing. I prefer it to "magic" (I never got on with Rails because of this... what just happened? why did it do that? where does it say it should do that?).

And you never know when you have a class/use case that needs the boilerplate to change. Having it the same 99% of the time so that you have the option to change it for that 1% edge case is a good thing, imho.
