If you haven't been keeping up, Go 1.21 reduced overhead from ~10% to ~1%. 1.22 overhauled the format to improve reliability and add information. 1.25 has a built in trace flight recorder. And we have an active proposal (go.dev/issue/62627) for a trace parsing package to enable arbitrary tooling.

Thanks @commaok.xyz for hosting @michael.express and I to talk about a fun bug in Go’s new Green Tea GC and the tools we used to investigate. sigpod.dev/6

New experimental garbage collector for Go programs! github.com/golang/go/is...

I’ve filed a proposal to make GOMAXPROCS aware of container CPU limits by default! Please take a look and provide feedback if this is something you care about! go.dev/issue/73193

Shoutout to @zekjur.bsky.social for showing me the way. Magit really is great.

Of all the cults out there, this groundhog praising cult is the most entertaining.

How often do people run into the SetFinalizer footguns in Go? (Accidental cycle, for example.) Would a GODEBUG that does something slow but tells you when you've made a mistake be useful to you? (Maybe even just for tests, to prevent a regression?) Sketch: go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/634599

"Go Protobuf: The new Opaque API" by Michael Stapelberg (@zekjur.bsky.social) — go.dev/blog/protobu...

I finally got around to planting my French shallots. I've completed my transformation into my parents.

Every now and then, nyc reminds you who is boss. My AirPods just fell out of my ear and onto the subway track.

And ~24 hours later the raid 5 volume is rebuilt. I should really work on upgrading this thing while it's top of mind.

It might be time to replace my Synology DS415+. One of the drives is on it's way out and I'm not confident that it's going to recover if I replace it.
