I really enjoy watching your videos and the topics you discuss are right up my valley. But I have to agree with one of comments above, at times it’s hard to follow your videos, like they lack a structure or something like that. And I don’t consider myself a beginner programmer. They feel more like a quick explanation of github code rather than a standalone video on some topic. I am completely fine with that, maybe it’s a better format. Just letting you know that that guy is not alone)

I need to study golang/microservices for my next role and your videos are super helpful for this purpose, thanks!
Having validation class is super handy, I think all full stack frameworks have them(form class).
Recently I built small microservices with clean architecture, one thing what bother me is that if I will want to add 1 field for domain model I will need to add in 7 different places(domain model, db model, validator, model transformers, ...) + grpc + sql. Is there any other way to deal with it?

I currently started learning golang like two months ago, most of the terms you use in your videos are too complicated for me and I get lost, I cant endure and only complete your videos half way, what do you suggest I do?
