Clean Up Your GOOOP: How to Break OOP Muscle Memory

Many Gophers, perhaps most of us, come to Go from other programming languages, often object-oriented languages like C++, Java, or C#. The OOP world is filled with 40 years of patterns and idioms, and it's easy to carry that muscle memory into Go. This talk explores common constructs, patterns, and idioms from Object Oriented Programming and shows how to translate them to idiomatic Go, avoiding the pitfalls of direct translation and preventing "GOOOP" (Go with OOP).

It covers how to approach concepts like classes, inheritance, and package design in a Go-centric way, emphasizing the practical and efficient nature of the language.
