I'd always considered Go to be the closest to a right wing language. It's more the Republicans of 10 years ago though. The republicans of austerity and respecting the hierarchy. You take what we give you and be happy with it. Don't argue with the elite as they know best for you. Just keep your mouth closed and work with what you've got. That sort of thing.
Tivo has a wonderful feature for skipping ALL the commercial breaks. (At least for most prerecorded shows. Not for live shows like news and sports.)
For shows that support commercial skip, when going to a commercial you'll hear a beep and see a little skip message pop up on screen for a few seconds. If you click the green button (I think... don't have the remote in front of me) you'll skip the entire commercial block and jump right back to the next part of the show.
That's one of the few reasons I keep Tivo. Otherwise Plex or MythTV or others work well enough.
I didn't think Julia's static compiler was anywhere close to working and may never be a feature of the language. Has that changed? An interpreted or even JIT compiled language with a run time needed to be deployed sort of takes it out of the C space. Also, Go doesn't use LLVM. It's been bootstrapped for a while now.

Never tell a Republican that Social Security and Medicare are socialist economic policies. The cognitive dissonance would break their brains.
