Abstract
Why do Go developers obsess over variable names, error handling, and interfaces, even when your approach does the job, too? Whether gently or not so gently, they'll remind you there's a right way to write Go.
In this talk, I'll walk through frequent code review comments to show what looks like nitpicking is a window into Go's design philosophy. These aren't arbitrary style debates; they're about writing clear, deliberate, and unapologetically pragmatic Go. You'll leave with a better understanding of the "why" behind the rules and how embracing them can sharpen your code.
