@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club haha! I read as Golang the first time too. It is just the way our minds work. :-P

Ok, the standard library implementation is wonky at best, at least in regards to XDG, because it really doesn’t implement it properly. https://github.com/golang/go/issues/62382 I stick to my own code then. It doesn’t properly support anything else than Linux or Unixes that use XDG, but personally, I don’t care about them anyway. And the cross-platform situation is a giant mess. Unsurprisingly.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org (Haha, every time I read the word “Gophers”, I have to stop and remind myself that this is about Golang. 🤪)

@prologic@twtxt.net I remember going through your “introduction to Golang”, I don’t remember the URL, but I vividly remember going through it, and I was lost at chapter one. So, about that “mastering” the core in hours, “I don’t believe you.” (insert I don’t believe you meme animated GIF here). LOL.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I don’t like Golang much either, but I am not a programmer. This little site, Go by example might explain a thing or two.

i wish it was realistic for me to learn golang but every single time i try to comprehend any go code i’m like What the fuck am i looking at. why is all of this so short and condensed GIVE ME VERBOSE CODE

@eaplme@eapl.me you wrote:

“That PHP snippet could be merged into https://twtxt.dev/exts/twt-hash.html”

Why, though? AFAIK @andros@twtxt.andros.dev’s client is on Emacs, @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org’s is on Python (and Golang, for tt2), @movq@www.uninformativ.de’s is on Python, and @prologic@twtxt.net’s is on Golang. All the client creator needs to know is in the documentation already, coding language agnostic.

i really wanna learn golang it looks fun and capable and i can read it kind of but every time i try it i’m immediately stuck on basic concepts like “what the fuck is a pointer” (this has been explained to me and i still don’t get it). i did have types explained to me as like notes on code which makes sense a bit but i’m mostly lost on basic code concepts

My take on the discussion to introduce an ? operator in Go 👈 No. For so many reasons.

@prologic@twtxt.net YEAH it’s so cool!!! i was thinking about trying it as sorta practice for golang lol

fighting for my life trying to learn golang WHAT THE FUCK IS A POINTER (rhetorical)

i like this little ideas utility i’ve been using like i keep pulling up the idea table to see what i’ve added and it makes me wanna start one of them like the CLI app i wanna write in golang with charmbracelet’s bubbletea even though i only have a vague idea of what i want in a CLI app

really wanna make an ssh zine app inspired by a telnet zine cms i found on github. i’m gonna probably go ahead with the telnet zine idea i have if i can get people for it but if i could build my own ssh mirror for it with golang and the charmbracelet wish library that’d be epic

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt No it’s all good… I’ve just rebuilt it from master and it doesn’t look like anything is broken:

@bender@twtxt.net here:

EXPOSE 8000

ENTRYPOINT ["htwtxt", "-dir", "/srv/htwtxt", "-templates", "/srv/htwtxt/templates"]

Don’t forget the --build-arg version="1.0.7" for example when building this one, although there isn’t much difference between the couple last versions.
P.S: I may have effed up changing htwtxt’s files directory to /srv/htwtxt when the command itself defaults to /root/htwtxt so you’ll have to throw in a -dir whenever you issue an htwtxt command (i.e: htwtxt -adduser somename:somepwd -dir /srv/htwtxt … etc)

Honestly… not much. Have abandon two projects (both private) on Golang and one related to cryptography. My mostly languages are Python and Javascript (also can PHP). After writing code on Go i spend same time on fixing dumb errors

Same! Great joke!

i like this one

from my understanding.. i don’t know how the multiplexing works when its being proxied through another server. I know go has support for it if you call it out directly. https://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/net/http2

@movq@www.uninformativ.de If it still existed I bet the first thing he’d do is convert it to Golang 👌🤣

Tutorial: Getting started with generics - The Go Programming Language – Okay @xuu@txt.sour.is I quite like Go’s generics now 🤣 After going through this myself I like the semantics and the syntax. I’m glad they did a lot of work on this to keep it simple to both understand and use (just like the rest of Go) 👌 #GoLang #Generics

I started reading the proposal to introduce operator overloading in Go version 2 that I like to see: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/27605 Now a few hours later I ended up at this gem. Write a program that makes 2+2=5: https://codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/28786/write-a-program-that-makes-2-2-5 There are some awesone solutions. :-)

@golang_news @prologic@twtxt.net Woot!

Go 1.16 is released ⌘ Read more…

Really looking forward to the release of Go 1.16

@kenkouot Are you doing #golang ?
