This is neat, and a testament to the simplicity of Go. I normally point people to this tutorial if they want to learn Go quickly, it is interactive (able to navigate straight to go playground) and very well done in my opinion. https:/

There is tooling built to easily do grpc requests from the command line[0] or even a GUI if that's your thing[1]. The tooling isn't quite as ubiquitous as cURL, but if anything I would think that its even easier because you have i

Go's context package is great, but also hard to reason about. As developers, we often times like to think that just piping a context through a function chain will take care of all of your timeouts concerns for you. Some fun context got

The big differentiator between these isn't per se the way that content is shared/created, but the network itself. So, as long as the network is intact, then in my opinion yes the big players can just copy/buy every competitor

I wonder what revealing how the algorithm works will impact content creators? We have entire industries built on poking at Google Search and Instagram to build exposure. My prediction is that this levels the playing field, but doesn't
