Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale

  • go

    The Go programming language

  • The explanation you refer to later in the piece assumes we are using fat pointers, but the earlier part is referring to the use of fat pointers in the first place (or more broadly the lack of covariance). Taking a look at https://github.com/golang/go/issues/7512 it looks like the lack of covariance stays because of the complexity cost in the language to support it

  • guide

    The Uber Go Style Guide.

  • Yes it is: https://github.com/uber-go/guide/issues/25

  • ireturn

    Accept Interfaces, Return Concrete Types

  • Can I highjack a topic? Made a linter recently that will track usage of returned values, just to follow rule return concrete values instead interfaces- ireturn. Can be configurable, can be used with github-actions and will be available with next minor version of golangci-lint.
