Hashi repos was my go-to place to study Go best practices and good patterns, but there are not that many places out there can pull off a large Go codebase without it being a complete mess. It requires a LOT of discipline and coordination. People who claim that "you can learn Go in a couple of days and just run with it" have no idea what they are talking about. Writing Go is easy. Writing good Go is very hard. My personal impression is that the Go fans simply assume that Rob Pike and Ken Thompson are language design gods and can do no wrong, but what I saw instead was language decisions and inconsistencies stuck in the decades past, incompatible with the complexities and scale of modern software development.
