What are the fundamental principles of the Go programming language?

The world has moved on since 1970 (C: Kernighan and Ritchie). But the world still needs a low level language.
Pretty printing and statement termination are solved problems. The programmer does not need to be forced to deal with them.
You can have a low level language and still have associative arrays, extensible arrays and garbage collection as primitives.
The world needs strict typing. But we can hide that from the programer pretty well.
Encapsulation is a good thing, but you can skip inheritance and most of the other object oriented stuff.
It’s about time parallelism was enshrined as a programming primitive.
