Had an account since beta. Don't recall receiving a single spam email until a few months ago at the very least, and have been receiving one roughly every couple of weeks. Very odd indeed.

You can't use the error handling part of the spec without invoking an error. Good minifiers will do the same, fwiw.

<link href=data: rel=icon> will work just fine ;) Another fun trick is using <!doctypehtml> since the spec says to pretend a space is there if not present for whatever reason ( https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipa

Use golangci-lint ( https://golangci-lint.run , https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint ) which combines all of the best lints (including staticcheck).

This is the first time I've gotten a real headache by looking at a website, and I'm assuming the culprit was too much movement mixed with only a couple hours of sleep. Make sure the spin on the 360 view is user-controllable, and g

It's been gone for a few months now, so it's not looking likely. Actually ended up writing my own which I now prefer, but I do hope you're correct since it's so useful to others.

You can instantiate it with [any] then use whatever you'd like https://go.dev/play/p/JeSuB_xYNEf , but I don't think it would work with a type constraint such as `int|string`, which would be a fair point.

You can certainly use generic parameters in methods—the [T any] just has to be on SomeNonGenericType, even if it's not used inside the type itself https://rakyll.org/generics-facilititators

Excluding any lines that aren't Go code, and from projects that I can recall off the top of my head: Kubernetes = 3.87 million, Go = 1.75 million, CockroachDB = 1.65 million, TiDB = 725k, Consul = 375k, Nomad = 375k, InfluxDB = 375k, M

The language has a tool that does this, and every editor I can think of uses it ( https://github.com/golang/tools/tree/master/cmd/guru ), specifically implements.go if you're interested.

I'd never use Go to write a kernel in, but you can disable the GC using `GOGC=off`.

You've also opened yourself up to bugs by allowing the map values to be "false". Using a "set's" value in an if statement doesn't make sense either, compared to if _, exists := something[item]; exist
