Lucas and Luna dive into why Go (Golang) has become the dominant language for cloud infrastructure in 2026. They break down how Go's concurrency model, fast compilation, and built-in tooling make it the default choice for Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, and countless other cloud-native projects. Specific numbers: Go now powers over 75% of CNCF projects. The episode explores the technical decisions that made Go win—like goroutines over threads, and static binaries. They discuss the trade-offs Go made (no generics originally, simpler error handling) and why those trade-offs were right for infrastructure. A must-listen for developers choosing their next language for backend or cloud work.
