Go developer survey 2023 H2 results
Posted on March 5, 2024, Level beginner Resource Length long
In August 2023, the Go team at Google conducted our bi-annual survey of Go developers. We recruited participants via a public post on the Go blog and a randomized prompt in VS Code, resulting in 4,005 responses. We primarily focused survey questions around a few topics: general sentiment and feedback about developing with Go, technology stacks used alongside Go, how developers start new Go projects, recent experiences with toolchain error messages, and understanding developer interest around ML/AI.

Reducing Go execution tracer overhead with frame pointer unwinding
Posted on February 1, 2023, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
The Go Execution Tracer (aka runtime/trace) was designed to achieve low enough overhead to be usable on "a server in production serving live traffic". This is achieved by writing events into per-P buffers, using RDTSC for timestamps, and encoding into a relatively efficient binary format. By Felix Geisendörfer.

Concurrency in Go-2(Go Channels)
Posted on October 25, 2022, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
The channel acts as a pipe by which we send typed values from one Goroutine to another. It guarantees synchronization since only one Goroutine has access to a data item at any given time. The ownership of the data is passed between different Goroutine. By Neeraj Kumar.

Reducing graph complexity using Go and transitive reduction
Posted on September 19, 2022, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
Directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) serve a wide variety of applications in computer science, biology, sociology, and other fields that involve complex networks. While these graphs often contain a large number of edges, some of the edges might be redundant, making computations unnecessarily expensive and the graph structure harder to understand.
