Wow this is really cool! I didn't see a link to the code, have you opensourced it?

At least you're not Montedogroan!

I just learned about Drip, an app to track your menstrual cycle that stores all the data on your phone instead of sending it somewhere. With Flo and others sharing/leaking your data this is really valuable. bloodyhealth.gitlab.io

Are hackers using AI tools the new generation of script kiddies?

Do you remember if they shared a repo for their project or what framework they used for the GUI?

As for ideas what to build, take an existing project that's been written in a language that needs setting up (Python, NodeJS) or isn't the best choice (Shell script, Perl) and rewrite it. You'll learn better how the original project works as well as your chosen language.

I am a Go zealot so take this with a grain of salt, but Go is a better* choice for most things: no worrying about memory, easier to write and read and much steep of a learning curve. Rust is more performant (cpu/memory) if you write it well but in most cases you won't need the edge it gives.

Howdy, we're meeting this tuesday at Datadog for a #Golang meetup focused on one of today’s most critical topics: Application Security.

Writing Parallel File Compression with Memory Control This weekend I was diving deep into current programming. In order to learn that, I decided to write a parallel file compressor, which will not only compress files concurrently but also limit the memory usage. I have implemented this in GoLang, but these concepts can be implemented in any language.

A nice article about "Let's Write a Threaded File Compression Tool with Memory Control"

Have fun!

That said, I am building a workshop for Kafka, NATS and RabbitMQ and for fun decided to try "implement the same functionality in Kafka as I have in NATS" (with a bit of extra stuff in prompt) and it did an ok job, although I did have to manually edit it quite a bit. But it laid a solid foundation.

I've used Github CoPilot with VSCode and am just testing out Gemini. Both do like to add blocks of code which I typically let them and then just remove the bits I didn't like. I'm sure there is a key to do it line-by-line but I'm too lazy and deleting feels easier 😅

I only use it for a kind of autocomplete and it does a decent job at that. Haven't used the chat features.

I checked Obsidian but it doesn't seem to have a web ui for editing, only a third party thing for viewing. That is a deal breaker for me.

I haven't found any good alternatives, does anyone have any suggestions? Cloud preferred but self-hosting is a possibility too. Or do I need to make my own? 😶

Notion reducing the amount of 'blocks' you can have in your free plan makes me want to look for alternatives. I am only interested in writing documents with markup and using the /todo -checkboxes. I also need Android app as well as a web ui for editing.

Darn. If you end up picking it up again I'd love to help if I can 😊

Cool article and a lot of other useful stuff here as well!

Having this as part of linting would be the best way depending on execution time - @luxifer.fr I saw you were working on making this work with golangci some years ago, did you end up finishing it?

I do sometimes long for things that are in other languages such as elvis operator or inheritance (for generics), but if Go were to add all these nice little things that random people like me want it wouldn't be the language I love anymore. Simplicity is nice even when it's not 😅

I love Ecosia and been using them as my default search for a while now. I have some questions but your DMs aren't open, could you shoot me a message please? 😊

#golang

He expresses exactly how I feel about most TDD practices. I think they can be good for small things when you have the exact spec but for larger changes and features you will end up with less readable and performant code.

That doesn't sound very fair, I'm sorry you had such a negative experience with them 🫂
