Java also can't beat Go's concise syntax. Even compared to writing in IntelliJ, an awesome IDE for saving keystrokes, I relish the simplicity and brevity of Go code.

How can Go be concise when you can't do f(g(x)) without two if-statements to check for errors?

Couldn't f check for g's errors?

No because you can't easily pass multiple return values as parameters. So annoying...
