Our great sponsors
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.

Nanosecond timestamp collisions are common
Our Go ULID package has millisecond precision + monotonic random bytes for disambiguation while preserving ordering within the same millisecond. https://github.com/oklog/ulid

Type-safe, K-sortable, globally unique identifier inspired by Stripe IDs
There is no "tests".
There is just a single test. Which only tests the decoding of a single known value. No encoding test.
Go has infrastructure for benchmarking and fuzzing. Use it!
Also, you took code from https://github.com/oklog/ulid/blob/main/ulid.go which has "Copyright 2016 The Oklog Authors" but this is not mentionned in your base32.go.

cmackenzie1/go-uuid: library for generating version 4 (random) and version 7 (time-ordered) UUIDs
maybe because of dependencies: https://github.com/oklog/ulid/blob/main/go.mod ??

UUIDs Are Bad for Database Index Performance, enter UUID7!
Universally Unique Lexicographically Sortable Identifier

Is it bad to use short (20 chars) random strings as primary keys?
I'm not concerned too much about the performance or the storage size at this stage. I've checked ulids before posting (more specifically https://github.com/oklog/ulid) but the only difference than a random string (especially if you use them with math.rand) is the timestamp prefix which makes them sortable, but I don't need that (users could use the internal SQLite rowid if they needed to sort by a primary key).

Golang Base Project - A simple web app with user authentication
why are you using https://github.com/oklog/ulid to generate a cookie secret?
-
What are your favorite packages to use?
oklog/ulid to generate IDs. coreos/go-oidc for validating JWTs I get from auth. google/go-cmp for comparing structs in tests (unless the project is already using Testify). spf13/pflag because life's too short for Go's flag handling. getkin/kin-openapi for validating reqests/responses against my OpenAPI spec (in tests).

Keyset pagination using UUID v4 mongodb go
If you just want to roll with an off-the-shelf library, you can use ULID. There are tons of custom made *flake alternatives. If ULID doesn't fit your purposes, look for others.

The DDD Hamburger for Go
The infrastructure layer contains the concrete implementation of the repository domain interface ActivityRepository in the struct DbActivityRepository. This repository implementation uses the Postgres driver pgx and plain SQL to store the activity in the database. It uses the database transaction from the context, since the transaction was initiated by the application service.

Building RESTful API with Hexagonal Architecture in Go
For building the RESTful Point of Sale service API, I've considered and selected a combination of technologies that would work seamlessly together. For handling HTTP requests and responses, using the Gin HTTP web framework would make sense because I think it seems complete and popular among Go community too. To ensure data integrity and persistence, I'm using PostgreSQL database with pgx as the database driver, the reason I choose PostgreSQL because it is the most popular relational database to use in production and offers efficient Go integration. I'm also implementing caching using Redis with go-redis client library, which provides powerful in-memory data storage capabilities.

Working with postgres in GO.
If you are willing to commit to working only with Postgres, I highly recommend pgx. Be sure you get the latest version github.com/jackc/pgx/v5. This gives you the full power of interacting with Postgres without going through an intermediate lowest-common-denominator library.

How to Use Iris and PostgreSQL for Web Development
It uses pg package and pgx driver under the hood.

Could I get a code review?
Starting off, is there any reason you're calling out to the CLI, instead of just using a Postgres driver like pgx? Shelling out to the command line should always be a last resort where possible as a software engineer.

Why elixir over Golang
For maintaining state I use PostgreSQL. Driver: https://github.com/jackc/pgx (I use the pgxpools) Along with Sqlc for generating database models and allowing me to focus on just building queries in DBeaver. https://sqlc.dev/

Make psql display settings on login
An example of what I'm looking for can be found here https://github.com/jackc/pgx/wiki/Getting-started-with-pgx-through-database-sql/c9f798b4d9a500fcf93931df2464af969d68f516

Zig now has built-in HTTP server and client in std
Except pgx recommends using their native interface, not database/sql, for performance and extra features [0], so it's not that simple in practice.
