Yeah, I'm far faster to getting an answer in perl than I am in Go, but doing it in Go once I've already got a solution in perl is way easier than doing it in Go from the beginning.
perl is way faster for string munging, type casting, etc.
I'm not worried about leaderboards (since they're mostly just proxies for timezones and how busy they are at work) so I tend to do it in Go from the start just to make me think in a Go way.
