I have been on the side of the free and anonymous internet for a long time. But honestly, I am not sure about how I feel anymore. Internet has become a jungle where scams, lies, all sort of crimes, propaganda and manipulations from hostile

This definitely exists, even when switching jobs. However I would say that IMO it's another case of foreigners buzzing by depicting boring and common stuff under a "weird Japan" light. Shitty companies manipulating employees

I don't know why most examples about the Go iterators shows unnecessarily convoluted examples. The authors probably don't know as much of the language as they think they do. Go is far from perfect and certainly has a lot of flaws,
