Now Eleanor McHugh starts off with "Y: Recursion The Hard Way" here at @gopherconeu.bsky.social
#gopherconEU
This was a new one, I was stopped and checked because I have a bunch of @TinyGo stickers on my bag, they really looked like that drugs x-ray pics on the scanner to be fair. They didn't look amused by the stickers ๐Ÿ˜“ #gopherConEU
Did my #GopherConEU talk on threading/multicore support in #TinyGo yesterday!
The video should be available in a month or so, but if you want to take a sneak peek at the slides you can do so here:

GopherCon EU 2025

Get it while itโ€™s hot! #GopherconEU

The latest release (v0.2.10) of https://github.com/gokrazy/rsync includes fixes related to sub-directory handling, by new contributor f-luo (welcome!), as well as a couple other fixes.

gokrazy/rsync is rsync, natively implemented in #golang! implements client and server, which can send or receive files (upload, download, all directions supported).

Go forth and sync your data!

Someone saw me at #GopherconEU today and thanked me for https://i3wm.org/ and said that discovering i3 opened up a whole world to them, and that was very wholesome ๐Ÿฅน
i3 โ€” i3: improved tiling X11 window manager

i3 is a tiling window manager with clean, readable and documented code, featuring extended Xinerama support, usage of libxcb instead of xlib and several improvements over wmii

Here is to another GopherConEU, I wasn't able to attend. As it has become tradition by now, I am slashing the price of my book by 50% for the rest of the week.

I am not sure who would still want to buy it, but there you have it! https://p5v.gumroad.com/l/generative-art-in-golang/gopherconeu25 #gopherconeu #gopherconeu25 #golang

Generative Art in Go

Generative Art in Go is an eBook intended to introduce novice and experienced programmers to algorithmic art, and hopefully, get non-programmers interested in the Go programming language. Unlike popular choices such as Processing, NodeBox, openFrameworks, etc., I picked Go for two simple reasons: Go's syntax is easy enough that virtually anyone can learn it quickly. The language is far more versatile than what most programmers use it for. Generative art is a unique form of artistic expression, building bridges between computer programming, randomness, and visual aesthetics. It has kept my imagination for over a decade. While I have never been particularly skilled at drawing, I have always been amazed by what one could achieve with a couple of lines of code.This book will introduce readers to graphics programming in the Go programming language context through a series of concise examples. It will also guide them in implementing their version of one of my favorite generative art sketches. As a bonus, readers will learn how to turn their command-line sketches into interactive Web applications, using WebAssembly and Web technology's latest standards.
