Dependencies won’t update themselves since they are locked to their versions. If the developer manually triggers an update, and the dependencies aren’t compatible, either the code wouldn’t compile or it’s behave weird. In both cases, what’s the advantage of separating out the fetch-dependencies part?
The cycle of violence that has marred the region for decades is so unfortunate.
It escapes my mind how decision makers (on both sides) have failed to value the human cost in the past. Irrespective of the history, the current situation is not very complex: it's a one sided war where Israel is the occupier (responsible for a lot of inhumane actions), and Palestinians, represented by Hamas, are resisting by whatever means necessary (no matter inhumane e.g the Oct 7th attack). The cycle continues.
Peace is usually in the hands of the more powerful, the one who has more, and can give more. In this conflict, at present, it's Israel. Some other day, in some other place, it'll be another entity. The only way for peace to happen is 1) either the powerful decides that it want's peace and offers what it takes to achieve that, or 2) the powerful completely eliminates the other side (akin to a genocide). I don't think (2) has ever worked, or will ever work. Even if it did, I hope no human with even slightest of morals would ever think of it as a viable solution.
In the last two decades: ~15,000 including children, ~1,700 Israelis, ~13,000 Palestinians, have lost their lives [1]. Each of these lives was equally valuable.
I don't even know why I am writing this, knowing full well I may be attacked. I guess, I just hope that somewhere, slowly, seeds of peace will be planted and people will start moving towards a world which is more peaceful.
It's a nice idea. I'm going to dig a little deeper in the design and developer experience choices.
That being said, I am a little curious -- what is the intended use case here? The reason I am asking is because I've been doing lots of web-development, with Go as a primary backend lang, for the last 9 years but never have I seriously felt the need to do serve the UI from Go. I guess there is some advantage reducing n (number of tools/languages in a stack) - but is there any other motivation behind it?
