This is cool, just don't let Rob Pike see this, he will have a conniption. Glad you called out that it shouldn't be used because this is about the most magical thing I have ever seen in Go

The lesson of the post is that Go is compiled to machine-specific object code mapped to a non-writable text segment in an OS-specific process. What's really magical is that compilers save you from such dangerous and non-portable details.

There is a popular postgres client for Go called pgx. This naming will likely sow confusion


Now, do one about neurodivergent brains and confirmation bias

if frameworks are specifications, then a new framework is definitionally a new standard. it’s not an ISO or ANSI standard. but the point of the comic is, there are 10 web frameworks, we need one to be the best of all of them! there are 11 frameworks.
