Although error checking in Go is verbose, I prefer it over silent errors. It's impossible to write reliable code in that world. Love syntactic sugar here.

I am cautiously optimistic about generics. The complexity will take 5+ years to iron out, especially performance. And it enables "parametric polymorphic astronaut abstractions," which are entirely anti-Go and dilute its simplicity. But probably inevitable.

Two relevant essays from my past:

Mr Mardy Dormouse @pete_darby

I got given the Ladybird Album of the Dad for Father's Day. It is 90% awful cheese. My kids are delighted by my reaction of horror. FML.

Apart from anything else, it's almost certainly put together by a millenial or Geny Z'er, as most of the tracks are what Glee says are nostalgia tracks for Gen X'ers (hint, it's nostalgia for American MOR rock of the 80's more than, you know, what I was listening to 1971-2001)

So, who wants me to take this apart a track at a time? Me, that's who.

Here is a thread on INTERVIEW QUESTIONS as you guys keep asking. There are 31 questions - I hope this helps 🙂

#JobsThread #InterviewTips

1. CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF?

This Q seems simple, so many people fail to prepare for it, but it’s crucial.
Don’t give ur complete employment (or personal) history. Instead give a pitch—1 that’s concise & compelling & shows exactly why you’re the right fit for the job.

Start off with the 2-3 specific accomplishments or experiences that you most want the interviewer to know about, then wrap up talking about how that prior experience has positioned you for this specific role. 😬
