    Destroy All Software screencast notes

    Notes from reading Practical Go

Notes of the key points copied/summarised from Dave Cheney's Practical
Go
for more concise reading/reference.
It's worth reading the original document as there is more exposition
there of the ideas presented.
These are terse notes only; I'm not providing my own commentary, opinion
