Do you prefer:

1. Large courses that focus on one topic and walk through it step by step.
2. Following a content creator as they create a mixture of independent lessons that cover a wider variety of topics. (eg a youtube channel, or Gophercises)

I'm considering turning my 'Building a Blog in Go' series [1] into a talk. Thoughts? I'm not sure how much value it would provide as a talk right now. I may need to finish the series to know for sure.

My 'Build a Blog with ' exercise series just keeps growing, but it is fun so I'm not complaining!

The next article walks through parsing metadata via frontmatter in preparation for showing a list of all blog posts. Check it out at calhoun.io/building-a-blo…

Next up in my Build a Blog with series - rendering markdown as HTML. Read it here: calhoun.io/building-a-blo…

I'm looking forward to some of the content in the next few parts of the series, like adding support for custom markdown & reading files from GitHub.

Does gopls & vscode just fail miserably for everyone when they use Go 1.22? Go to definition, etc all stop working with Go 1.22 in the mod file. Super annoying.

I'm going to be on Go Time ⏰ this evening with Jon Calhoun and William (Bill) Kennedy (dream team!).

I need an unpopular opinion, but I have shared mine already. Anyone got one they want to share? Doesn't need to be Go related, and will credit you on the episode :)

If we designed a programming language for AI to use, how would it differ from today's programming languages?

What are some high quality homeschool programs? What makes them great? Currently looking for our daughter who will be in 1st grade next year.
