Expecting somebody at 0 to become a software engineer via coursework or a
book doesn’t seem reasonable to me. There’s at least a couple years of
mentorship and experience required just for the baseline.
JS or Go can get you far without knowing about stack traces, processor

I think "Introducing Go" is a great book for someone relatively new to
I've had multiple occasions where I've needed to train someone to be a
programmer from scratch in a Go environment.
Trouble I've found is while the go texts are simple and straightforward,
