Can we call this the Xerox PARC syndrome?

This is what I like about Go. This "small introduction" is basically everything there is to know about struct tags.

Bonus, Gorethink tags [0] and how we use them at Lavaboom [1].

There's an ongoing Algorithms course on Coursera right now!

edit: found another one, also happening now (can't believe I missed it): https://www.coursera.org/course/algo

Yes! We use them to check for weak passwords server-side. (Passwords arrive already hashed, we have a large dataset of known bad passwords that we load when the application starts.)

My main language for the past 2 years has been Go, and I'm very happy with it (with the occasional Python and JS break). I would definitely recommend it for you, too. I've been on both sides of the hiring process and Go seems to have gained a lot of momentum, especially at companies you'd like to work for.

It's a really cool front-end experiment, but I fail to grasp its usefulness.

For some reason copy-pasting some of those into iTerm2 doesn't work.

If mongo impresses you, you should check out rethinkdb: https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb

The last time I used a debugger was when with VS/C# or IntelliJ/Java, many years ago. For the coding I do now, mostly Go/Python/JS, I find manual debugging techniques much more effective.

Ubuntu and Fedora come with espeak. Stumbled upon that fact when doing https://github.com/andreis/different

I had a feeling I've read about nginx before: http://aosabook.org/en/nginx.html

The whole book is worth a read, although I found some sections painfully boring (perhaps my limited attention span is to blame).

Sorry, but this is hardly rocket science: https://www.google.com/search?q=ng+classy

Agreed. It's a weird thing to focus on given the topic of the article, but his writing is surprisingly good.

Template modified from here [0]; doesn't inspire too much confidence to be honest.

I can vouch for TalentBuddy, they have a great service.

If you're interviewing, I maintain a list here (that desperately needs some attention from me, btw): https://github.com/andreis/interview

So does Lavaboom (PGP encrypted email, still in closed beta). You can reserve a username here: https://mail.lavaboom.com/secure

Sure, #lavaboom on Freenode is mirrored on our Slack. Hit us up anytime :)

We at Lavaboom use PGP manifests to hide most email metadata inside the envelope [0] [1]. Inspired by [2].

Or, just have a nice interface on top. Something like http://hnhiring.me/, but with actual features - sorting and filtering, for starters. Maybe even embed that functionality into HN for "who's hiring" posts, instead of relying on a 3rd party website.

Maybe because they don't actually have a jobs page? http://rethinkdb.com/about/

Good luck!

By the way, there is a rather popular static site generator written in Go: http://gohugo.io/

Duty Fate?

Since I'm in the same boat as you, what about Falcon? Are the extra performance and customisability worth switching?

edit: Thank you for your reply - by the way yes, I am indeed only building a REST API.

I just realized that in my language (Romanian), "blat" is slang for arranged match. How fitting. :)

I have a slightly different theory - assholes will be assholes.

Just checked it out, looks neat!

Just switched to prezto yesterday, I doubt I'll be looking back.
