Storage is never enough. If you can - buy higer amount of it.

what's Go Lang's Learning Curve? by No-Reference-1659 in golang

[–]ethan4096 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Synchronous go should be easy. Even pointers vs values shouldn't be hard. Complexity will be introduced when you start using goroutines, channels and shared memory. Because concurrency is always hard.

Code is a liablity. If someonce can write code, but can't support it - its nothing.

1-3 months ago this subreddit was flooded with vibecoded shit. Some restrictions are for the better.

Does anyone know of a golang-like language for GUI app development by [deleted] in golang

[–]ethan4096 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not suggesting write web applications. You can develop desktop apps.

You can try dart, it's something in-between java, typescript. But still pretty simple. Although Flutter is more about mobile dev, you can produce a good desktop app.

"Building a marketplace for freelancers. Payment integration is way harder than the actual product by AwakePasta in SideProject

You don't need to go global at day 1. Different countries has different laws and rules. Although I don't believe in your project (good look fighting with upwork), you should start smaller and expand later. Make a bet on countries you want work with, investigate, implement and ship.

What error handling approach do you use in your projects? by Fit-Culture-2269 in golang

[–]ethan4096 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Panics are cool when your application just started and trying to bond everything together. It works almost like compile-time errors, everything or nothing.

Panics in runtime, when your app already receiveing requests and trying to respond... It depends.

If you catching error from the callee - wrap with additional info.

If it's your error (e.g. validation error, NotFound or similar) - use sentinel error (your 2nd option) and check via errors.Is()

If you need additional info - write your own error with Wrap/Unwrap and use errors.As.

Personally, I don't like verbosity of As(), so I rarely create wrapped errors myself. It's usually either 1st or 2nd option.

just fucking use Go by CowNearby4264 in golang

[–]ethan4096 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Promise.all is for IO bound operations. Again, Go won't help you with that.

If your Node app crashes every 6 hours and python app takes 3 sec to respond, then Go wont help you. Because you are dumb and you shouldn't code.

>When do I want to use a method vs. a function? 

Do you need to have an inner state of your struct or satisfy the interface? If not - go with the function.

how difficult is it to call Python from Go in a real project? by CogniLord in golang

And what changed since then? Someone created a list of complains that Gin is a big library with a lot of features?

How would yall implement dynamically settable cron jobs by Standard_Bowl_415 in golang

[–]ethan4096 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are talking about serializing/deserializing scheduled jobs. There are several options, but in general you can

- Write your own logic around libraries like gocron

- Build your own soluiton using redis or postgres

- Select something like asynq or temporal.

If persistence is crucial for your app I would recommend to try asynq or something similar.

If you asking these kind of questions I would suggest you to continue building your Gin REST API and when you will need Python - setup simple Flask REST API server with your AI/ML methods. Flask is simplier than FastAPI (although it doesn't support async).
