#Golang is replacing #PHP and #Bash for quick and dirty one-time scripts for me in many cases (especially where memory consumption is of importance).

It's pretty awesome that a compiled language is a good replacement for scripting languages.

I remember in ye olde times where the distinction between compiled and interpreted used to be much larger, but just running "go run main.go" is not that different from "php script.php" or "bash script.bash".
