TIL: Product owners are the OG “vibe coders”. They’ve been vaguely describing what they want for years and receiving crappy bug-ridden code in return.

It's been about a month into my @golang.org learning journey and this is my progress so far, I use exercism.org for hands-on learning, and while at work I read "Learning Go" by Jon Bodner

Missed a couple of days with my daily learning @golang.org updates. So I'll drop the day count, besides that I don't think anyone is interested in that count.
Anyway, I solved:
🎯 Grains on the chessboard: each next square has a double amount of grains
🎯 Arabic to Roman numerals

Bad decisions happen, and life goes on. Many mistakes were made and the bills still come down this road but I would like to thank ThePrimeagen for all his hard work, drive, and passion that keeps me learning after a 12-hour shift as a taxi driver learning and not giving up.

It’s slow today at work, well it’s been like that the whole week but that gives time to read “Learning Go” by Jon Bodner atm at chapter 6 Pointers. Highly recommend this book.

Day05: Done 3 exercises and before starting the 4th, was scrolling through solutions that others posted to see if I was not missing a better way to solve this problem and that was the path to falling into a rabbit hole of performance testing) More details after my night shift. #Go #Shift2Code

Day 02: Got through Interfaces, Zero Values and Stringer interface
✅ Interfaces: DIY contracts, with implicit implementation.
✅ Zero values: smart defaults.
✅ Stringer(): allows types to provide their string representation.
