On: "projects using licenses like the GPL… live under constant threat of having someone take over the project by producing a better version of the code and doing it faster than the original owners." Yeah, I don't understand w

The common BSD-style licenses, 2-clause BSD and 3-clause BSD, are similar to the MIT license. The 2-clause BSD is effectively the same as the MIT license. The 3-clause BSD adds "don't use the names of the original software contrib

Makes sense for the most part with these constraints then. I missed the "primitive types" portion in the original comment. The following isn't applicable for pure JSON responses, but is applicable for primitive types: An addi

wholeheartedly yes; this addresses nearly all the concerns i had in my comment. the only other concern is the ability and the added time to make changes to these dependencies. what this sometimes means in practice: in terms of time: you may

There isn't a need for specific ordering of keys in the object representation. But I want to be able to write parts of the toml document in different orders (e.g. "hosts" table before "certfile"; or "hosts&quot

It's weird that the only way to get the following structure: { "hosts": { "example.org": "localhost:8000", "foo.com": "localhost:9000", "sub.example.com&q

TOML is a bad file format for human configuration. For example, in the following file [hosts] "example.org" = "localhost:8000" "foo.com" = "localhost:9000" "sub.example.com" = &quo

I agree with your points regarding writing a test. It is one of the best ways, and the right way, to handle the issue. That said, I think my toy example wasn't the best way to show some of the points I was getting at. Consider a real e

Exactly. Here is another example where a comment can help. // Do does x, y, and z, in that order. func Do(x, y, z func()) { x() z() y() } Sometimes, as here, the comment correctly describes what the

Sorry for the digression first. (If anyone has different definitions for the ideas here, I would love to learn.) I think the answers would depend on the types of tests that the term "this" encompasses. From how I understand it, ca
