Nodejs vs go

Question

Which do you prefer? What are the advantages/disadvantages of both?

Answer 1

Linus Gates

Node.js is a run-time, or environment, for JavaScript code execution, while Golang is a programming language but both are used for backend development. 
Golang started by Google in 2007.
Node.js is written in JavaScript, it inherits most of the properties of that language.
