“You can never realize 1 language until you realize at least two.” – Geoffrey Willans
For years I've been developing mostly in JVM languages. Sometimes in another C-derived languages, which was both cool and easy.
A fewer months ago (due to career shift) I had to learn Go rapidly. While technically Go has keywords looking akin to C, many things are simply different and even unheard of in C-based OOP languages. Learning Go is simply a large journey and the best are these AH-HA moments, erstwhile doing things in Go I abruptly understood Java better.
Sure, during a single talk I won't teach you Go. Thing is: I don't event want to, as all I want is to show you any concepts in Go which can aid you (just as they helped me) become better Java developer and realize why we request projects Valhalla and Panama. It's about leaving our comfort region to get... more comfort.
