Author here. I’m a huge FP snob (Rust/Scala) so using Go for this project kinda hurt at first.

But as a solo founder, I needed speed. The main thing I learned is that LLMs write amazing Go code. It's so simple and boilerplate-heavy that the AI almost never hallucinates.

Ended up building a distributed audio ingestion system that undercuts Twilio by like 80%.

Happy to answer questions about the architecture or other things.

Rust isn't functional. It's an expression language.

You are technically right, that is not a functional language. But it borrows many things from functional world :)
