At some point someone should confess to new people who are struggling to learn programming that 99% of everything they are trying to learn is not actually endemic to programming, has nothing to do with how a computer works, and will be completely different in 5 years.

So cool to see this. 🆒 Kudos to Polar Signals for sponsoring open source maintainers! 👏

2022: “WOW you can write a prompt and an AI will draw it!” 2028: “You want to write a prompt? First you need to hire 10-15 promptOps Engineers to build out your PromptFlow pipelines which sends promptjobs to your PromptLake from the PromptQueue using the EventPrompt stream”

Making progress on gotraceui, now displaying stack traces from CPU profiling samples. github.com/dominikh/gotra…

Huge shout-out to Chris Waldon (github.com/whereswaldon) who has been incredibly helpful with all of my (and other people's) Gio-related questions, all while continuously working on and improving the project.

I love seeing this.

Development on Staticcheck has been a bit slow lately, partly due to personal reasons, but also because I've been putting a lot of time into gotraceui. It's not quite ready for a release yet, but I'm hoping to get it out soon. In the meantime, enjoy this screenshot. #golang

GitHub Generally speaking, I think there's space for some amazing ML developer assistance tools that are not as ambitious as Copilot. Don't write my code for me. Surface useful information, like related issues, parts of the codebase that are often modified together, potential fixes...

GitHub Sponsors has stopped supporting PayPal for sponsoring people & I've lost quite a few sponsors due to that. If you were using PP and would like to continue supporting my work please consider re-sponsoring me (github.com/sponsors/domin…). I would appreciate it!

I have released v0.1.0 of Gotraceui, the efficient frontend for Go execution traces. It is my latest project and an attempt at bringing Go's traces to the masses. Please check it out at github.com/dominikh/gotra… #golang

Michael Knyszek's "Execution tracer overhaul" design document is now public. I'm very excited about this. The future for execution tracing of the Go runtime is bright! github.com/golang/go/issu… go.googlesource.com/proposal/+/ac0…

Hey Wolfie Christl, loved the Data Dealer demo, 9 years ago. Y'all must be getting really close to releasing the full version, right?

Fucking Yikes. This branding is... unfortunate. Don't get me wrong, Copilot is great, but there's still so much room for improvement on the "Social Coding" platform (remember when that was GitHub's tagline?). The homepage now is "AI-Driven Developer Platform". Ah, fuck.

I've been waiting for this to be released. Big thank you to Dominik Honnef. #golang gotraceui.dev

When I made my debugging course I committed to keeping it up to date so wanted to include something about gotraceui and flight recording. This weekend I walked through the blog I tweeted about last week and added my own thoughts too. If you like this video, you can check out

I had been meaning to comment on Jonathan Blow’s “Why can’t we even conceive of writing a new OS today” post. Coincidentally, I just got an email that opened with: ——————————————— Hey John, 2 years ago I pitched you LIBBA - a dedicated OS for smart glasses. You were
