SUMMARY:(Lunchtime) Jeremy Clark: A Tour of Go for the C# Developer
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a lunchtime presentation on Wed Feb 10 @ 12 PM Bost
 on time (EST) -featuring "A Tour of Go for the C# Developer" by Jeremy Cla
 rk\n\nOnline Meeting Details:\nThis event will be organized as a Microsoft
  Teams meeting. The recording will be available on online after the event 
 a link will be provided after the event.\n\nDescription of Talk:\nA Tour o
 f Go for the C# Developer\nLearning other programming languages enhances o
 ur work in our primary language. From the perspective of a C# developer\, 
 the Go language (golang) has many interesting ideas. Go is opinionated on 
 some things (such as where curly braces go and what items are capitalized)
 . Declaring an unused variable causes a compile failure\; the use of "blan
 k identifiers" (or "discards" in C#) are common. Concurrency is baked righ
 t in to the language through goroutines and channels. Programming by excep
 tion is discouraged\; it's actually called a "panic" in Go. Instead\, erro
 rs are treated as states to be handled like any other data state. We'll ex
 plore these features (and others) by building an application that uses con
 current operations to get data from a service. These ideas make us think a
 bout the way we program and how we can improve our day-to-day work (in C# 
 or elsewhere).\n\nAbout Jeremy:\nJeremy Clark makes developers better. By 
 drawing on over 15 years of experience in application development\, he hel
 ps developers take a step up in their skill set with a focus on making com
 plex topics approachable regardless of skill level. He is a Microsoft MVP 
 for .NET\, and he has authored seven courses for Pluralsight\, including "
 C# Interfaces"\, a course aimed at giving developers a clear understanding
  of abstraction. He loves speaking and has delivered over 300 technical pr
 esentations in the last 10 years in the United States and Europe. Jeremy l
 ives in northern Washington with his lovely wife\, 3 cats\, 2 hound dogs\,
  and a banjo.\n\nhttps://www.devopschat.co/meetings/lunchtime-jeremy-clark
