I couldn't find anything about this from a search, do you have a link to the bug tracker or something?

To me, secure boot is the setting that I need to remember to turn off before installing the OS, but I would be willing to be convinced otherwise

Hmm I wasn't familiar with join, but it looks like you still need join + fmap for the construction? I believe fmap would also need a generic method

It's (sadly) still not possible to express monads with this change, since generic methods can't implement interfaces. You'd probably want something like:

    type Monad[T any] interface {
        Bind[U any](func(T) Monad[U])
    }

However this requires the Bind method to be generic, which still isn't allowed in an interface

> Why would there be paranoia when writing blocking code with async?

In languages like JavaScript, you have to be careful to avoid blocking the event loop, and use something like worker threads for CPU-intensive tasks. Otherwise you will end up with long tail latencies. In Go, the runtime automatically manages this and can suspend and resume long-running goroutines.

> naively accessing a global value can lead to race conditions

Fair point that the language doesn't automatically catch this, but that's what a mutex is for. In return you get actual parallelism that can use all your CPU cores

> Your entire codebase is now a surface area that is at risk of being blocked

The point of goroutines is that they can freely block when needed. It's not like async where you have to be paranoid at every moment about writing blocking code

Also C++/Java static initialization, C# static constructors, or Rust global variable initialization, ...

Most languages have this feature Afaik

I use lowercase for my personal environment variables. It works well since most programs only depend on variables in all caps. Hadn't thought of using MY_

I really want to like Helix, but I wish the developers paid more attention to performance, or were more receptive to outside contributions. Helix can really chug, even on small files, and the perception in the community seems to be "it's written in Rust so therefore it's blazingly fast :rocket-ship-emoji:"

Which aspects of Rust syntax are adapted from ML? Semantics sure, but to me the syntax seems a lot more similar to C++ (e.g. semicolons, type parameters using <>, etc.)

Just a personal anecdote, but the errors from Guix are terrible. I had to reinstall because I couldn't figure out the scheme errors for my system config

No nix, no scheme, got it. I wonder which language you would use?

Yeah, it only checks whether the last bot comment is older than 30 days, completely ignoring any human comment

    if (botCommentDate < oneMonthAgo) {
        // Close the issue - it's been stale for 60+ days

Hard to imagine how this got past code review...

> Writers kept sending to sub.messages. The channel grew. Memory grew.

Channels are buffered in Go, they will not grow unbounded.

> Tickers Are Not Garbage Collected

It used to be necessary in older versions to call ticker.Stop(), but in recent versions it's no longer necessary.

    // Start goroutines
    go s.pumpMessages(ctx, sub)
    go s.heartbeat(ctx, sub)
    
    // Monitor the connection
    go s.monitorConnection(ctx, sub)

The "fixed" code is still using the fire-and-forget pattern for goroutines which encourages this kind of leak. Go makes it easy to add concurrency on the caller side, so it's usually better to write blocking functions that clean up all their goroutines before returning.

In general this article screams AI with most of the conclusions being hallucinated. Goroutine leaks are real, but it's hard to trust any of the article's conclusions

I fixed an almost identical bug at work a few months ago: an internal service was calling some network device, and would only fail for IPv6-only devices. Turns out it was trying IPv4 first, and then when it failed, it would retry the request with IPv6, but the request body was already consumed so the retry failed with a cryptic error
