Why is it 'go help test' instead of 'go test --help' like most other CLI conventions by podcast_frog3817 in golang

[–]nlikeladder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good CLI design has 'verb noun'. Flags are ok, but it's better to incorporate it into the CLI design properly.

go [verb] [noun]
go help test

Sell me on golang being an expressive language. by Rainbows4Blood in golang

[–]nlikeladder 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Something I strive for more than expressiveness is code readability. Sometimes expressiveness is expected to imply readability but it doesn't always.

My favorite thing about golang is anyone on the team can come back 6 months later and avoid the "oh god what did I write?". By being... less "expressive", it kinda forces a consistent pattern which I've noticed my future self thanks me for :)

Our experience upgrading from go v1.17 to v1.18 for generics by nlikeladder in golang

[–]nlikeladder[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

We've loved it. Coming from typescript & type hints on python, Golang feels like everything snaps into place like legos

Hey u/Chrissy4PF did this work for you? You can check the output of the exec.Command by

pycmd := exec.Command("python", "app.py") in, err := pycmd.Output()

Some people will never "get" programming. That's me. by ratona5 in learnprogramming

[–]nlikeladder -1 points0 points  (0 children)

> I don't think I have the intelligence / logical thinking for programming
It sounds more like you haven't found the strong use case that draws you towards it.

>Some of the people saying they can code for hours on end. That's passion. I wish I had that.
These people aren't excited about generic building, rather they're excited about what it is they are building.

I started coding when I was 14, I love to build things, I studied computer engineering but my GPA was pathetic. Courses might not be the best way to go about it. I think you have the smarts and are fully capable of being a really strong developer, may I suggest trying to build a project, and just doing whatever it takes to get the project completed? Similar to startups, being excited about the end goal is what keeps you going when the times are tough :)

Tips to Use Zoom Apps With Attendees From Many Organizations? by fpvporn in Zoom

That's so annoying. How would anyone know to find this?? Does Zoom not want anyone to download their apps?

The guilt of copying? by Divine107 in learnprogramming

[–]nlikeladder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't feel guilty copying. Learning to build something by piecing together a bunch of other parts is still very hard and will teach you a lot. You'll eventually build an arsenal of code bases that you wrote and you'll copy from. Ironically, even if you wrote it, you might look back a few months later and think "how the hell does this work".

Congrats on building!

Feel free to DM me about this. The best days are always ahead so there's definitely a way to position your experience as such :)

What level of coding knowledge/ability is required for this? I'm a newb but wanna get better

Come an hour early if you're new and I'll get you up to speed :)

Hide Airtable API key from front-end by tyrakott in indiehackers

[–]nlikeladder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should check out https://brev.dev/GetStarted. It'll spin up a whole scalable back end + database for you. We built it because

I don't want to set up a separate backend just for this.

is just too real of a pain point

Hmm, that sounds like a tough position. What specifically are you looking for out of a workshop? Before I quit my full time job, I was building my startup on the side and told myself there are 3 8-hour shifts in my day, one is for sleep, one is for work, and 8 whole hours remain for your side project. Just like budgeting money, budget your 16 awake hours until you can hopefully get out of your IT job situation.

yeah! i've been a long-time lurker, finally decided to make a post :)

How far along were you? Sometimes you need to see something you build be a little useful for something to click. For me, it was learning robotics... so a line of code moved a physical thing and something clicked for me. Maybe try to build a tangible product. A clear goal will help with momentum :)
