Little bit awkward and frenetic, but in an entertaining way as it turned out.

I would have loved to have seen more reasons why you might use Go, examples of where it beats PHP etc

The live coding went well and Dan handled the inevitable issues well. Sometimes things happened very quickly though!

Some great info about the benefits and challenges of using Go in the real world. Also interesting talks on RISC OS and GitHub copilot
