weak.Pointer (Go 1.24+), runtime.AddCleanup (Go 1.24+), and sync.Map combine wonderfully into a 20-lines weak map. #golang It associates values to keys, with automatic garbage collection once the key becomes unreachable. Using it to tie precomputed FIPS keys to PrivateKey values we can't modify.

just saw a guy in a toilet using FOUR paper towels when ONE was plenty enough, so I thought maybe it's worth sharing this insightful TEDx Talk. It's been almost 10 years since I first saw it but it influenced my life in ways I couldn't imagine www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FMB...

gopls v0.18.0 quietly released a new "modernize" tool which automatically adjusts your #golang code to use newer std APIs and language features! modernize -fix ./... For example: range over int, min and max, slices APIs like Contains or Delete. github.com/golang/tools...

fosdem was great, already looking forward to it in 2026

there's some beauty in Excel, and that is you start over from a blank slate everytime for every new project

I'll be in the @golang #devroom at 4pm! see you there!

Thanks for reaching out. Do you mind if I share this email on social media to gauge the reaction from our community?

everytime i debug an error and find the culprit in code autocompleted by some ai, i get very frustrated

github.com/Pitasi/x/tre... here's the code powering anto.pt (for now) i'm pretty happy with how simple it is, and it's sort-of production ready, no need for fancy frameworks thanks #golang

every year I rewrite the server of anto.pt, this time I did it with my favorite language of all times: Go you can use the top-right button to change the color I used only stdlib + a markdown parser, I'll open source the code very soon

please, help your code reviewer: anto.pt/articles/hel...

easily one of my favorites games of all times I'll be honest and say that I had to Google some things near the endgame (there are multiple finales layers and I didn't want to miss them)

one of the best UX tricks I've seen in Slack and Notion is the ability to copy a link, select some words in the message you're writing, ctrl-v, and the words become a link

people are like "you can see stars at night" while literally being blasted by rays of our nearest star during the entire day

my atproto/bluesky idea, a HN clone but it's just a frontend for: HN=a special bluesky account Submissions=BS posts tagging the account Comments=BS responses this way you can browse it via your BS app, you have "likes" and comments out of the box frontend is only a convenient visualization

i guess google chrome isn't ready for me to experiment with using oklch colors as background 🤣

while I'm not fond of working 12+hrs or "founder mode" (I'm european thanks), I'd love to work in a fast paced environment with a shared vision so I agree with the rest of this post: noahkagan.com/what-i-learn...
