summary
Argues that the "Errors are Values" idea and Category Theory patterns can be applied in Go without the math jargon by moving control flow into types, shows concrete implementations: a safeConn wrapper that accumulates errors and short‑circuits writes, a divideinator type that embeds division guards, and a silent request handler for signup flow at doesgohugenericyet.com. Demonstrates the technique cleans linear composition and works for these examples while warning of abstraction costs and added complexity.
