If they're claiming to know the language when they actually don't then they are being fraudulent. How do these people manage to ship any real Go software without understanding basic language constructs? Are you next going to tell me that they don't understand interfaces or type embedding? I would appreciate your article more if you titled it something like "Learning about Go slices" instead of something so clearly click-bait.
I'm from Moscow and I have relatives in Crimea. I've visited them in 90s and then in 2000s. Most of Crimea citizens are 'soviet' pro-russian people. They are happy to get russian pension and all that infrastructure porjects money cause Russia is a really rich country compared to Ukraine.
