The Best Go Framework.. No Framework? — Many languages have default (or, at least, obvious) frameworks that can help your project get off the ground quickly and help learn the language, but Go is different. Starting without a framework may be the best choice you can make, argues Robert. (This also provoked a fair bit of discussion on Hacker News.)

GoLand Turns 5; Releases v2022.3 — Whilst a commercial product, GoLand is undoubtedly a common IDE choice in the Go world, and 2022.3 offers a variety of enhancements, including improvements to generics and workspaces support. A Go Playground feature has also been baked in for in-IDE experimentation.

IN BRIEF:

  • 🤖 The robots are coming for us. OpenAI even provides an example of its latest GPT-3 based chatbot answering questions about Go code. All well and good until they give you the wrong answer..

  • Google's vulnerability reward program on Twitter: "Did you know that we leaked tokens that could compromise our Golang mirrors on GitHub?" At just three months old, Google's VRP scheme has already issued bounties to keep the Go community safe.

  • 🗣 Someone asked Hacker News: What do you like or dislike about Go? Quite a few people answered.

  • 📅 Want to speak at GopherCon Israel next February? You've got a week to submit your talk proposal.

Fast Embedded Templates in Go with quicktemplatequicktemplate is a template engine for Go optimized for speed (boasting a 20x boost over html/template). How? Templates are converted into Go code and compiled, which also means many bugs can be caught at compile time.
