go

I am currently at a weekly jam session at a bar called Mo Jam Mondays. It is pretty fun to hang out here so that I get a chance to play bass live and while I wait for my turn, write some code to some

Being able to develop go in an interpreter feels magical. I feel like I can fly through errors or web design iterations. The particular feature I was working on today was something I have been wanting

I got the static site generation working while working on the plane! It feels pretty hacker to be able to have a vision of what you want to work on and then have it come to life so quickly. The static

This is some godom code that syntax highlighting should pick up on for the blog. func RenderHome(state HomeState) *Node { var articles []*Node for _, post := range state.Posts { articles = append(

I am really happy with the progress that I have been making with the site. I feel like I have really embraced the ethos of hacking and I find myself having an easier time letting go of what my past se

Even though the "go" keyword is the same name as the language, you would think this is more commonly used. From my experience, go developers, including myself, will avoid using go routines and channel

In the realm of software development, the dichotomy between local development environments and production settings presents a notable challenge. The ideal scenario is where both environments mirror ea

Dependency injection has radically increased my programming rate. When everything is designed as a module, you find yourself constantly reusing things you have already written since it is the path of

Something I do not see often in programming language books is a concise explanation of semantic structures that are typically used. For example, in a Java method, there are different modifiers you can

When coding, have you ever stopped to ask the question: why am I doing this? Maybe it is a fleeting thought before you return to squeezing out a few more milliseconds on your page load. As creators of

Testing in software development often finds itself at the tail end of the feature development cycle, sometimes viewed as a necessary evil to uphold code coverage metrics rather than an integral part o

It may seem silly, but go run is my favorite part about go. Want to run your code? go run main.go. It is so stupidly simple that I could tell my mom about this command, and she would immediately under

The goal for this year is to: "write and publish something every day." So far I have been doing a good job keeping up with this. In my pursuit to build larger compositions of thoughts, next year will

You are a FAANG developer who writes excellent Go. You are inspired by the writing of Rob Pike. Write a bulleted list on why a developer who codes in scripting dynamic languages is unfamiliar with Go
