Nick Craig-Wood (ncw) was the CEO of the last company I worked for, and I consider it a privilege to have worked for him. He's one of the smartest people I've ever met, and an incredibly nice person too. I have many fond memories of the annual staff barbecue in his garden.
I attended his talk on deadlocks in Go at Gophercon UK this year. It was great, he showed some real life examples from rclone. Here is a link if anyone is interested - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9j0oQkqzhAE
