What is special about this? Am I missing a Portal joke again or are we finding a 10-year-old technique funny today?

Why don't you put a demo query page so I can try addresses in my country without signing up?

edit: signed up. does not work outside us. Why not bother documenting that?

I have a blog post about this: http://alp.im/blog/go-linq/

Wow those HTML5 videos totally caused my browser to freeze on a very good hardware.

Too late, it's over. I don't want it anymore. I can get the exact same stuff with minimalistic Jekyll/Pelican themes and Svbtle is not exclusive anymore.

Haha that's so funny. The developer has involved in the discussion and he is seriously defending himself. What is wrong with him lol.

LOL even my blog with free SSL cert from startssl gets A. I suppose that's nothing to brag about. https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=ahmetalpbalka...

Site is down. How do they manage to go down with probably static content, I have no idea.

Windows-only. :(

I would not blame Google in particular. Go team operates like they are not part of Google most of the time. You are right about the abilities of other languages to make things easier for LINQ-like scenarios. But in Go, that's as much as I could get. I don't know what else to do.

I am planning to add SelectMany, ToDictionary, GroupBy and Zip methods soon. I cannot agree you more, I also am not happy about the result I ended up with. Anyway, this was my first project in Go, I will maintain and keep adding stuff to make things easy for other people who might like to use this. But Go is 'really' not for this, I know.

I gotta admit I never seen the problem that way, now I can clearly see I am wrong. Probably I need to limit number of goroutines spawned with a configurable default value. Thanks for pointing out Ryan!

In .NET, extension methods are functions defined on the classes you don't own, like string or System.Net.WebRequest. In Go, you cannot define functions on builtin types and exported types from packages other than your own package. So Go way of defining functions on types is not exactly extension methods.

Great comments. I have thought about creating an interface so people can just implement their own query evaluation methods and, as you said, do querying from remote data sources. That's still a long-term plan, though, I probably need to see somebody using it before digging that deep.

I am afraid that's actually not 100% accurate. Microsoft also uses term "LINQ" for method-based query syntax. See here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb896339(v=vs.110).a...

Yes that's what C# and Python offers.

I wrote that statement thinking about the experiments people are making using millions of goroutines and still end up low cpu utilization when goroutines mainly depend on IO. Go has a neat scheduling for that. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Yes I know that. I have been in touch with Matt several times about this. I really look for ways to improve it, even if it is one small step at a time. Just posted a thread to golang-nuts about this: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/golang-nuts/nLwWkoS7... noting Go really needs generics and maybe even lambdas some day.

Just leaving this project here. Hopefully, I will maintain it as bugs etc arises. Who knows, maybe someday Go will have these features and there will be many apps instrumenting Go for their application logic and use it.

Rework and other books from 37signals team might be influential. Also you must be continuously involved in an open dialogue with the CEO or whoever takes decision on the direction you are heading. If they are strictly against the change, time to escape, then.

You know, there's `navigator.platform` returns like "MacIntel", "Win32", "FreeBSD i386", "WebTV OS".

It's taking too much time to download each file even they're 40 MB. I wish they put it on as torrent in the first place.

Regarding the leak, yeah, that actually happens when you focus on the product but security and reliability of your system. Snapchat, Whatsapp and many others are hacked numerous times and yet it still happens.

Go: C does not have garbage collection.

Isn't going to be a 27" 4K from Dell? Rumors were saying so IIRC.

Ya dawgs go lawnch another virtuale coin'n get h4ck3d dat easy and komplain.

This explains why there is "goto" keyword in Go spec. Nobody uses it, except state machines and reducers for compilers. They probably thought they'll rewrite compiler in Go and didn't drop that keyword?

Why are you even posting a news site requires paid subscription? I cannot read this article!

Please add 2011 to title. Folks are thinking this is new.

I made a similar website months ago doing exact the same thing by reverse engineering the API. It's still illegal, though.

I don't know why everyone is paranoid about unseen location data being collected. They often blame proprietary software like iOS/Android collect location data and send Apple/Google servers. That sort of transfer would be evident by tracing traffic and there are tons of reverse engineers out there intentionally keeping an eye on transferred packages that might contain sensitive private data. That would be a huge breakthrough if it would exist and be revealed.

This sounds promising. I upvoted just because I want SF folks to afford cheap and healthy lunch. I hope it all goes well and you can expand to Seattle area.
