    New York is not about outdoors, e.g. mountains and ocean; it's about people.
Oct 21-29, 2023 I went to New York City for the 3rd time, this time I still sometimes didn't know what the fuck I was doing, but definitely way better than the first 2 times ☺️
Huge Success

I found

an extremely good pizzeria in Brooklyn — Ace's Pizza Spot
an extremely good coffee shop in Hell's Kitchen — The Jolly Goat Coffee Bar
an extremely good Italian restaurant in Greenwich — Alice | New York Italian Seafood & Lobster Bar; Eleanor (the most elegant and gorgeous 76 yo lady in New York City, more about her later) and I spent $200 USD at it 😝!! Oh and the neighborhood is beautiful

                Go Intro
              
          
Go originated from solving software engineering problems at large scale (huge amount of programmers, lines of code, computing resources) and is aimed at being simple but powerful
Go started from C (pretty much all the authors were authors of C) and removed complex parts of C
Go introduces the concept of, a key feature for building distributed systems

I consider myself a minimalist and a Stoic so Go's philosophy really satisfies me :D

also as a minimalist, I only recommend resources as necessary as possible:

    a few of us attended GopherCon 2023, i put down some notes that i shared with all the Datadogs
Talks

Googlers gave 5 talks, Redditers gave 2, we Datadog gave 1 (by Jon Bodner) all just great:

well structured, clear logic with a storyline, nice designed and delivered
some Googlers spent several months on talks, Redditers even had customized mascots
i guess they got tons of internal help, support, and resources on public speaking

what impressed me the most is what they covered about:
