This is it! I guess often people don't realize how much work it is gonna be when they start. If they did they would have never started working on it. But they may actually like the work or want to improve and learn something new while

I moved from C++ to Go. It made programming enjoyable to me again. With couple of lines of code, huge and well-thought system libraries and very accessible external modules and gomod I can create a working SW fast. No complicated configurat
