My Thoughts on Go

I started learning Go after a Wheelbase ingestion path in Python got too slow. The language itself is the part I keep thinking about.

I like the method-receiver syntax. Pass-by-value versus a *Bank receiver makes the mutation story obvious in a way C++ sometimes buries. And Go's automatic struct pointer dereference is a small, precise detail that feels like the language is paying attention.

It is not a religion. It is a better tool for a class of backend work I am already doing.
