**Mark Bates:** Exactly. |
**Brian Ketelsen:** You know what's really embarrassing? I just finished a live class for O'Reilly, and I think there were 250-300 people in the class and I said, "Everybody needs to go listen live at changelog.com/live after this class." That might have been a mistake. |
**Carlisia Thompson:** You feel sorry now. |
**Mark Bates:** Sorry, everyone. |
**Brian Ketelsen:** Yeah, it might have been a mistake. |
**Mark Bates:** So this is why we can't have nice things... |
**Brian Ketelsen:** It is. Mark is why we can't have -- well, actually, Mark is what brings the love back to Go web development, so we're gonna let it slide this time. |
**Erik St. Martin:** It's a love/hate relationship. |
**Mark Bates:** Yes. I always joke, my parents recently moved in down the street from me... |
**Brian Ketelsen:** What?! |
**Mark Bates:** Yeah, don't even... \[laughs\] So they leave down the street from me and I say it's like living in the sitcom now "Everybody hates Mark." \[laughter\] |
**Erik St. Martin:** So now I know the story of how you lost power. They're like, "Nobody needs more Mark." \[laughter\] |
**Mark Bates:** Exactly. |
**Erik St. Martin:** "Shut it down!" So we should probably end the madness... Definitely thanks to everybody who's on the show. Thank you, Mark, for coming on the show. Thank you to everybody who's listening live and will be listening to this when the recording has released. If you aren't currently, we are at GoTime.fm... |
Huge shout out to our sponsor StackImpact for sponsoring the show, and with that, bye everybody! |
**Brian Ketelsen:** Goodbye. Thanks, Mark! |
**Mark Bates:** Goodbye, thank you guys. |
**Carlisia Thompson:** This was fun, bye! |
**Mark Bates:** Bye! |
