Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Functional Programming Library for Golang by IBM
A simple alternative is the combination of:
- https://github.com/samber/lo
- https://github.com/samber/mo
The split is also nice as you can choose to just use the generic convenience functions from lo without the more FP related things from mo.

Handling nil values: Pointers vs Abstractions
Is it a popular approach to use abstractions in general for handling nil values with libraries like null or mo? Should I just stick with pointers? What are your experiences on this topic?

samber/lo utility package based on generics
I really like it. Have been using it for a while, just don't overuse it. Also, I recommend github.com/samber/mo

I know there is no OPTIONALS in go , i hope they implement it , what is the best approach to deal with optionals in go? sometimes i think the default values added by golang isn’t suitable, like adding zero to int ! .. zero is a value not nil or undefined.
Have you taken a look at mo? https://github.com/samber/mo

What the state of functional programming ecosystem ?
If you are curious, try looking at github.com/samber/lo and github.com/samber/mo packages if you get a chance.

Reduce Boilerplate in Go Http Handlers with Go Generics
I have seen https://github.com/samber/mo but it's a niche. Monads aren't popular in Golang community.

-
Expected vs Unexpected errors in Go
I've also looked at the mo library, in particular to use Option[User] but that's really just a slightly safer way to represent User* here. (Safer because you're forced to check if there's a value and so don't have the same accidental panic risk.)

Microsoft Maintains Go Fork for FIPS 140-2 Support
There used to be the GO FIPS branch :
https://github.com/golang/go/tree/dev.boringcrypto/misc/bori...
But it looks dead.
And it looks like https://github.com/golang-fips/go as well.

Borgo is a statically typed language that compiles to Go
I'm not sure what exactly you mean by acknowledgement, but here are some counterexamples:
- A proposal for sum types by a Go team member: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/57644
- The community proposal with some comments from the Go team: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/19412
Here are some excerpts from the latest Go survey [1]:
- "The top responses in the closed-form were learning how to write Go effectively (15%) and the verbosity of error handling (13%)."
- "The most common response mentioned Go’s type system, and often asked specifically for enums, option types, or sum types in Go."
I think the problem is not the lack of will on the part of the Go team, but rather that these issues are not easy to fix in a way that fits the language and doesn't cause too many issues with backwards compatibility.

AWS Serverless Diversity: Multi-Language Strategies for Optimal Solutions
Now, I’m not going to use C++ again; I left that chapter years ago, and it’s not going to happen. C++ isn’t memory safe and easy to use and would require extended time for developers to adapt. Rust is the new kid on the block, but I’ve heard mixed opinions about its developer experience, and there aren’t many libraries around it yet. LLRD is too new for my taste, but **Go** caught my attention.

How to use Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) for Go applications
Generative AI development has been democratised, thanks to powerful Machine Learning models (specifically Large Language Models such as Claude, Meta's LLama 2, etc.) being exposed by managed platforms/services as API calls. This frees developers from the infrastructure concerns and lets them focus on the core business problems. This also means that developers are free to use the programming language best suited for their solution. Python has typically been the go-to language when it comes to AI/ML solutions, but there is more flexibility in this area. In this post you will see how to leverage the Go programming language to use Vector Databases and techniques such as Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) with langchaingo. If you are a Go developer who wants to how to build learn generative AI applications, you are in the right place!

OpenBSD 7.5 Released
When Go first shipped, it was already well-documented that the only stable ABI on some platforms was via dynamic libraries (such as libc) provided by said platforms. Go knowingly and deliberately ignored this on the assumption that they can get away with it. And then this happened:
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/16606
If that's not "getting burned", I don't know what is. "Trying to provide a nice feature" is an excuse, and it can be argued that it is a valid one, but nevertheless they knew that they were using an unstable ABI that could be pulled out from under them at any moment, and decided that it's worth the risk. I don't see what that has to do with "not being as broadly compatible as they had hoped", since it was all known well in advance.
