    Project mention: Google's Go may add telemetry reporting that's on by default | /r/golang | 2023-02-10

    Compile time means you catch issues at... well compile time. It also means that the code is optimized. You can look at the performance different between encoding/json and easyjson for why you may desire that.

    Project mention: How to Use AVX512 in Golang | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-01-22

    I thought the /r/golang comments on this post were pretty useful[1]. They also introduced me to avo[2], a tool for generating x86 assembly from go that I hadn't seen before. There are some examples listed on the avo github page for generating AVX512 instructions with avo.

  • zek

    Generate a Go struct from XML.

    Project mention: Newbie: I have a big xml file, the content is much nested tags and what I need to do is adding a field in a very nested tag in this file. One “not elegant” way is to make thousands of structs to parse the file. Do you guys have a simple solution for a task like that. | /r/golang | 2023-01-30

    I use zek for big XML operations. You give it an XML file and it outputs a struct — https://github.com/miku/zek

    Copygen is a type-based code generator for the Go programming language. Copygen allows developers to generate type-to-type copy functions out-of-the-box without reflection (why?), but it can also be used to generate code. As an example, disgo is a performant, secure, and thread-safe Go Discord API Wrapper that uses Copygen with dasgo to achieve feature completion.
