I recently received an issue report that ijq was performing slowly. The issue claimed that, when used on a large (16 MB) JSON file, ijq was “too slow to be usable”. I downloaded the test file which …

Shows how much the performance of Go has improved from version 1.0 through to 1.22 (including PGO) -- in its compiler, runtime, and libraries.

I made up a neat little pattern in Go the other day. It’s a way to represent a state change in a system by exposing different APIs for different states, while only holding state in a single underlying struct. I’m sure I’m not the first person to invent this, and it may already a name, so please let me know if you know of one. I’m going to show an instance of the pattern first and the motivation after.

Go first came onto my radar about 9 years ago when I came across MuMax during my PhD studies. While I’ve touched it briefly, I wouldn’t consider myself to have used it in anger until recently, when I started a job that uses it as one of it’s primary languages for API development. I’ve had experience in writing C and C++ code, but more recently I’ve done a lot of Python, so going back to Go has felt oddly like a throwback to those compiled languages I’ve used before, with a bit of modern sparkle.

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 understand. Like with most things in go, the real power in this command is in the effortless understanding of how to build and run everyone’s code. But I can run node main.

In response to @cadey@pony.social's blog post about wanting retry loops in #Golang, I wrote terrible hack using using the proposed iterator syntax. https://go.dev/play/?v=gotip var err error for range backoff(&err, 1 * time.Second) { if err = something1(); err != nil { continue } if err = something2() ; err != nil { continue } }

I wish Go had a retry block https://xeiaso.net/blog/2024/retry-block/

I strive to respect everybody’s personal preferences, so I usually steer clear of debates about which is the best programming language, text editor or operating system. However, recently I was asked a couple of times why I like and use a lot of Go, so here is a coherent article to fill in the blanks of my ad-hoc in-person ramblings :-).

Today, if you publish a popular Go module on a URL and you lose control of the URL (through, eg, domain expiration and having the domain snatched up), you have a problem that's probably more or less impossible to deal with short of making blog/Fediverse/etc posts about the situation. Go module identity is tied to URLs with more or less no external override or way to automatically announce and see problems (individual people can override for their usage, but that doesn't scale).
