For 14ish years I've been focused on Node and Ruby both personally and professionally, and PHP for the decade before that (dabbling in other languages Elixir, C++ & C#, Python, Rust).

I've been really enjoying Go for the last 3 months. I find the simplicity of the syntax fresh (though verbose), the community rallying around Idiomatic Go (instead of every framework/library doing their own take on things), the slowness of evolution/stability (though I miss how fast Node has been iterating new features in 20+).

Something surprising I found really enjoyable with Go is doing leetcode drills and algorithm practice. No idea why its different, but they're fun to do now (I suspect it's because I'm new to the language).

I enjoyed it. The low budget, horror but not scary, frightening or gory is appreciated. Atmosphere, setting and period was a nice change of pace from previous films. Casting did fine, Jack Kesy works as a young Hellboy. I would like to see more of the smaller/low stakes stories.
