I've met people saying they use REST API when they were doing RPC and I questioned them and said that's RPC, and they replied, "well it works". Bird brains man..

This is exactly why I hate devs that don't care about code quality

There's so much to consider based on your use cases and nature of the program. You don't just make it work. You have to write readable, maintainable code, make it work sufficiently well, write tests, and use proper tech for the given case. God forbid you use bubblesort and say "it works".

It works for now. What happens if a bug is found? if the program needs to be extended? Having scalability problems? Having performance issues? The programmer who developed it leaves and the next programmer can't understand your code? Cost to run/maintain is too high?

Enjoy!

I have told myself to stick to JavaScript on Nodejs and stay away from other languages until I come to some extent of mastery with Nodejs, and here I am learning Go. Couldn't resist my urge.
