Aspects of a good go library

A short checklist of what I wish for in a good Go library, in no particular order. This is a companion to the effective go list, Go code review comments list, and Go proverbs list.

Let’s Implement a Bloom Filter in Go – codeburst
https://t.co/aKDi4hcotG

Today I decided to play with some data structures and I was wondering what should I learn next. I remember some time ago while I was reading some articles about Cassandra internals that it used bloom filters to check if the particular SSTables are likely to have the request partition data. I thought it might be cool to implement one and share my thought process with you. I will try to explain things as simple as possible.

Tracking the Stars  
https://t.co/AhotvlJTC0

In April 2017, I thought it would be fun to try setting up a system to track the star counts of the top 1000 Go repositories on GitHub. This article describes how I collected this data and some simple analysis of the dataset.

Divide, compress and conquer: Building an Earth data server in Go (Part 1)  
https://t.co/70iWUU0NNU

This is the first article in a series of three, studying the problem of serving large satellite images using NASA’s Blue Marble image and the Go programming language. This first article presents options for storing large satellite images using files and discusses the differences in performance when accessing the data. The second article focuses on compression, demonstrating the benefits of fast compressors when storing and accessing large datasets. The third goes through the steps for exposing an efficient Blue Marble server using the Google Cloud Platform.

[Перевод] Линейная регрессия с помощью Go
https://habrahabr.ru/post/345484/

Долгое время меня интересовала тема машинного обучения. Меня удивляло, как машины могут обучаться и прогнозировать безо всякого программирования — поразительно! Я всегда был очарован этим, однако никогда не изучал тему подробно. Время — ресурс скудный, и каждый раз, когда я пытался почитать о машинном обучении, меня заваливало информацией. Освоение всего этого казалось трудным и требовало много времени. Также я убедил себя, что у меня нет необходимых математических знаний даже для того, чтобы начать вникать в машинное обучение.

Dynamic Code Generation - a JIT compiler for x64 in Golang  
https://t.co/Eopqld9aFe

A JIT compiler (Just-in-Time) is any program that runs machine code generated during runtime. The difference between JIT code and other code (eg. fmt.Println) is that the JIT code is generated at runtime.

distributed locking for pennies: distrilock  
https://t.co/4w0Iwg1t2d

A while ago I needed a distributed locking solution to compensate for some lousy 3rd-party limitations, and I was a bit overwhelmed by the lack of choice. (Feel free to let me discover more in the comments, but please avoid mentioning solutions you have not tried yourself)

At one point recently, Kubernetes was the largest open source Go codebase in existence. It is still massive, and that’s a good thing because Kubernetes is the future of cloud computing.

Microservices in Golang - Part 4 - Authentication with JWT  
https://t.co/YsDcSEKgur

In the previous part in this series, we looked at creating a user service and started storing some users. Now we need to look at making our user service store users passwords securely, and create some functionality to validate users and issue secure tokens across our microservices.

Using Go Templates
https://t.co/grfQg92U5k

Go templates are a powerful method to customize output however you want, whether you’re creating a web page, sending an e-mail, working with Buffalo, Go-Hugo, or just using some CLI such as kubectl.

Buffered vs. unbuffered channels in Golang  
https://t.co/QNfBK7MoM8

As any newcomer to Golang and it’s ecosystem, I was eager to find out what is this hubbub about these things called goroutines and channels. I read the documentation and blog posts, watched videos, tried out some of the “hello world” examples and even wasted a couple of days trying to solve the puzzles for day 18 from Advent of Code 2017 using goroutines and failed spectacularly.
