I am not going to answer the questions, but this is a very strange complaint, to be honest. For example, passing by value/passing by reference is something covered immediately in the Go FAQ document once and for all. Everything is pass

Yes, that make sense, of course. A beautiful type system doesn't help businesses make money after all.

I really like the idea of bounded contexts and aggregates in theory. What I still don't understand is how defining them can be feasible at the beginning of a project when you have too many unknowns (some of which are unknown unknowns).

I think that the first edition is mostly as relevant now as it was 7 years ago, but it's really great that this terrific book gets updated. The expected release date is December 25

No, it's not the case and this terminology shouldn't be used as it's confusing and unhelpful. There are reference types in Go even though this is also not a super popular term. They still follow the pass-by-value semantics, i

rsc, thank you very much for all the hard work on the language that brought me into software engineering. Despite playing around with several programming languages, Go still feels like home. The development experience is terrific and I real

I think I have a somewhat similar case. Whenever there's an important or interesting task at work, it's literally impossible for me to distract and stop before it's done. I can skip my dinner and sleep because my mind is full
