Sorry, I have to disagree with the entire premise here.
A wide variety of experiences might lead to well-roundedness, but not to greatness, nor even goodness. By constantly switching from one thing to another you are always reaching above your comfort zone, yes, but doing so by resetting your skill and knowledge level to zero.
Mastery comes from a combination of at least several of the following:
Handler per Reader, so why not add Handler to Reader's constructor with an optional concurrency int on Reader?HandlerFunc function type would be a nice alternative interface for stateless handlers or closures.Stop must be followed by blocking on the ExitChan (which should be a struct{})? Why not simply make Stop block until handlers have exited gracefully?Reader.Configure is awkward, but makes sense if you want to provide validation for Reader fields. However, it seems strange to make the fields public and provide a setter with no indication which is the proper mechanism to use.ReaderConfig type (like tls.Config) which could be built as a struct literal and passed to Reader.Configure (or a constructor?) would allow for validation and public fields.Reader initialization is non-obvious.

| 3. Microservices and monolithic architectures have both benefits and disadvantages. | |

| 5. Success of the business is a large influence on the exploitation of benefits and implementation and costs of workarounds. | |
| 6. All benefits and work arounds are context-sensitive. Meaning that they are both technically and socially constructed by the organization that navigates them. | |
| 7. Path dependency is a thing. History matters and manifests in these architectural decisions and evolution in an organization. | |
| 8. Patterns exist to inform practice, not dictate it. Zealous adherence to an architectural pattern brings peril when it is to the exclusion of cultural context in actual practice. | |

| UTF-8 validation test | |
| UTF-8 is used for encoding text, which means, mapping the bytes in a file to meaningful characters. | |
| ASCII is the classic, once ubiquitous encoding in the western world. It uses a single byte per | |
| character, and uses only the lower 7 bits of that byte. It can only represent the characters on a | |
| US keyboard (as well as tab and carriage return etc). Other encodings exist which also use a single | |
| byte per character, but use all 8 bits, like ISO-8859-1, or use multible bytes per character, like | |
| UCS-32 which always uses 4 bytes per character. These encodings can represent many more characters, | |
| such as accented ones. |
