Written in Golang! That’s a pleasant surprise. Thanks for sharing.

"I sit in my cubicle, here on the motherworld. When I die, they will put my body in a box and dispose of it in the cold ground. And in the million ages to come, I will never breathe, or laugh, or twitch again. So won't you run and play with me here among the teeming mass of humanity? The universe has spared us this moment."

Come for the ScyllaDB, stay for the Golang.

Great article! I read it because I am using MongoDB and was interested in using ScyllaDB in the future. I was pleasantly surprised you wrote using Golang for your examples because that's my primary language.

May I make a suggestion in the future to include "Golang" in your articles title so your articles are easier to find by us Go devs? Thank you! :)

Most fun thing about permaculture is the fact that no one is making money from actually applying it but rather just selling courses, books and other media

Checkout "Stefan Sobkowiak - The Permaculture Orchard" via his YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@StefanSobkowiak. TL;DR, he purchased an apple orchard and started applying permaculture principals to create sustainable business. For example, he took every third apply tree and cut it down to replace with a "Nitrogen Fixing" sort of tree in addition planting other smaller plants and shrubs in between the trees (see "syntropic agroforestry") and overall he's had tremendous success. This would be the best video of him explaining his success with applying permaculture - https://youtu.be/zArUk3THIV0.

Another person to checkout is "Shawn Dubrowsky - EdibleAcres" via his YouTube channel at: https://www.youtube.com/@edibleacres. He basically applies permaculture principals to feed himself/wife on a substance level and runs a tree nursery business.

I'm also passionate about this topic and trying to apply technology and seeing what I can learn. From looking into this topic, stuff that could be helpful are: Arduino, Raspberry Pi, Soil Moisture Capacity sensors.

Sounds somewhat similar to “steemit” [0] crypto. However, the main difference is you gain coins from users voting (aka liking) your content and not p2p sharing aspect [1].

You have a cool idea so I’m curious myself what others will mention in this discussion.

I think this is called "district heating" [0]? And such a thing is practised around the world.

W00t, keep up the great work!

The advice in this thread is excellent so far. I'll add to the discussion to say that another option you have is to containerize your Golang application and have a container for every project you work with. If this interests you, I've written a Blog article on it:

https://bartlomiejmika.com/posts/2022/how-to-containerize-a-...

It takes a little bit more time to setup your application in a container, but as time goes on, it saves you work by containing different services you can easily re-create / add / delete / etc versus having to install them manually in your workstation. In addition, having a containerized Golang application is the first step to creating "cloud-native" sort of applications. If this interests you, checkout this tutorial on building cloud-native applications:

Sorry haven't heard about it but thanks for bringing it to my attention!

Out of all the programming languages coming out these days, Crystal is the one I am watching out for. I've never programmed with Ruby, but I have programmed with Python in the past so I really value the focus on programmer friendly syntax that Python taught me. Currently a Golang a programmer and I love the performance plus binary executables!

From my experience so far Crystal feels like a performant language with the wonderful feel of Python. Definitely check this language out if this is the first time you're hearing about it.

Great job implanting this library!

There was an article [0] a while back on Reddit of someone creating a clone using https://bubble.io for the frontend. Might be a useful to investigate. Good luck!

Hi HN, I wrote this helpful library for anyone using the Go programming language. I basically found myself re-using time manipulation code for ETLs and so I decided to write my own library to remove duplicate code.

Thanks and any feedback is welcome!

Take a look at the Crystal Programming Language - “Slick Like Ruby and Fast Like C” is goal of the project.

These efforts are like building a big bonfire in the woods and hoping someone finds you.

If you've never heard of this topic of Kardashev type civilizations, I found a good introductory video which helped me get a gist of it back in the day if anyone is interested:

Honestly, this movie is the most realistic fictional depiction. It's time range is before, during and after:

And if you want to know how the world would like after the movie Threads, read the following book:

Thank you - this is amazing!

Interesting! Thanks for sharing.
