Server 2012 was dropped in https://github.com/golang/go/issues/57004 and it's still in security support. My numbers are somewhat similar to @olivielpeau in that thread.

Windows 7, Server 2012, macOS 10.13 + 10.14, and so on. Together it makes up nearly 10% of our user base. We have a very slow-moving customer base and their choice of OS is out of our control. At this time last year there were still more Wi

At my $DAYJOB devs are free to jump on latest builds for containers we operate (SaaS / API services). But we also deliver end-user apps with Go, and those have to stick to 1.20 for compatibility with older client OSes. 1.21 made signif

I'm a bit blindsided by "got really popular lately" - these projects would be relevant to my work but they've completely slipped under my radar. Whereabouts are you hearing about those projects? Or (alternatively) where

If you're the kind of person with a folder full of files, you might try something like find . -name '*.mkv' -o -name '*.mp4' | while read -r f ; do if ffmpeg -hide_banner -loglevel error -txt_format text -i &q

There are multiple Box+Wine distros floating around at the moment. r/EmulationOnAndroid likes to talk about https://github.com/olegos2/mobox as having the current best performance compared to Winlator.

In this example, you have to magically know that DB returns a statusError{} in order not to wrap it again. I've found one improvement is to encode this knowledge in the type system, by not using plain error returns on the handler, but

The "built-in support for SOA data types" on the homepage is a really cool data-oriented feature. This is what i imagine Go would look like with that: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/64926

Wasabi Cloud Storage have a Sponsored-By tag on the git commit fixing the issue, so I assume they're highly involved somehow.

ROCm works on RX570 ("gfx803", including RX470+RX580 too). Support was dropped upstream, but only because AMD no longer regularly test it. The code is still there and downstream distributors (like if you just apt-get install libam

If it's the same underlying repo then it would be nice to avoid needing two git remotes for it (original + fork). But how you do that, i'm not sure.

It is common to use --privileged (or -v docker.sock) and run docker commands inside docker. But then you're not really in the container, you may as well be on the host. I think genuinely containerizing inside an ordinary container, w

MMS is email-style MIME messages retrieved over HTTP on a data connection. Push notifications for MMS are delivered as a special SMS, but otherwise it's far far closer to internet than cellular, and it's green.

If you enable SSH, third-party binaries somewhat work but not really - is it even clear what version of Linux they're emulating? I assume it's no longer real GPL Linux after all the lawsuits, right? ...right?

Another really interesting way to approach this problem would be to adapt wasm2c to emit Go output. It should result in better performance than wazero.

There's a pure-go zstd at https://github.com/klauspost/compress - it's likely faster than running the upstream zstd under Wazero.

On x86 the cache is implicit when you touch memory, and there are many ISA ops (push, call, ...) that implicitly update stack memory. But if you never call those, it is possible to access the cache explicitly. Coreboot have a custom in-tree

Apache Software Foundation would be the biggest example - although I don't know if they use the same authenticode certificate or App store accounts for their subprojects.
