> Go shines for network services.

Right. Go is a great language for the server side of web client/server things. It's more reliable than C++, easier than Rust, and is hard-compiled to a read-only executable, which is good for security. Goroutines, which are cheap but can block, get rid of the async/sync distinction. The important libraries are maintained by Google people and used internally, so even the unusual cases are well-exercised.

What more do you want?



native GPU (CUDA, BLAS and friends) support would be nice. haha
