I personally like Go and appreciate its simplicity and tooling and everything but the example given is "making a folder" and "putting a ... main() func" in it. But, like, this is exactly as easy with every single other language that I can think of.

The second part "Running go install at the root ./.." is actually terrible and risky but, still, trivial with make (a - literally - 50 year old program) or shell or just whatever.

I get that the feelz are nice and all (just go $subcmd) but.. come on.
