The antithesis of cool. Author of “Learning Go” from O’Reilly.

Anyone working at Twitter who doesn’t want to enable fascism and feels they can’t leave, reach out to me on mastodon and I’ll help forward your resume around. Hope others will do the same.

[Jon Bodner @[email protected] @jonbodner]

I've removed my Twitter address from my GitHub account. Until GitHub supports Mastodon natively, I've put my Mastodon address in the location field.

I will ask O'Reilly to remove Twitter from future printings of "Learning Go".

Thought I’d give Mastodon a try since the ship is clearly sinking here. If you’ve got questions, comments, complaints, or praise for “Learning Go”, reach out to me at @[email protected]

@HandstandSam Did it help?

[Jon Bodner @[email protected] @jonbodner]

@bufferings Thank you!

[Jon Bodner @[email protected] @jonbodner]

@bufferings to refine or remove in the second edition. You can use adapters to wrap third-party structs, but you can do the same in Java with objects.

[Jon Bodner @[email protected] @jonbodner]

@bufferings 3. You are absolutely right that depending on structs (or other concrete types) defined by third parties is as much of a dependency as depending on an interface defined by a third party. You found a very weak argument in the book that I need...

@danluu I hope this isn't true for my book, "Learning Go." I put a lot of thought into chapter order and concepts. Mistakes and changes are inevitable, so O'Reilly published a revised first edition to update the chapter on generics and to fix errors. I'm writing a second edition now.
