I'm trying to learn some golang, and found this interesting post on why variable declarations are 'backwards' https://blog.golang.org/gos-declaration-syntax

Happy new year!

#introductions
Like most of the new people today, I saw that post on hackernews and decided to give mastodon a try.
I'm currently studying compsci, and among other things, I enjoy:
* working on side projects, before becoming bored and disillusioned
* writing 'self documenting' code, followed by almost instant regret
* reinstalling npm packages while complaining about server-side javascript
* general shitposting
