@jayconrod Nice!

[Rebecca Stambler @stamblerre]

Please try out the new postfix completions feature! (You have to manually enable it through the “experimentalPostfixCompletions” setting.)

We’re hoping to collect some more feedback before we enable this feature by default.

@jayconrod Ah, but a ferry ride on a sunny spring day. :: sigh ::

[Steve Traut @steventraut]

@Sajma @khanreaper @timbray It’s in!

New blog post! Modules are (usually) simple to use, but there's a lot of hidden complexity. This post describes the download, distribution, and verification process.

@_rsc @gophtwit That goggles gopher is pretty sweet.

[Steve Traut @steventraut]

@Sajma @ellenkorbes Heh. Just a sec.

MAKEUP! Need some help here.

@ASpittel People dislike needing docs. If we could capture how (and how well) a topic gets people out of docs and back on their way, we’d have something useful.

A doc writer should long for their content to be used and tossed aside. Most content metrics are about long-term relationships.

@AstartesKC @_myitcv @jayconrod @_rsc It’s not hard to get turned around on how packages, modules, and project structure all fit together. I know I stumble over it. It’s on my list to write something focused on that specifically, including some best practices.

[Steve Traut @steventraut]

Realized that a lot of my tech writing wants to capture that moment when a person with a task they haven’t been able to find the tech for is getting help over their shoulder from a coworker who had the same task and just figured it all out yesterday.

There are a ton of new module changes in Go 1.16! I wrote about some of the bigger ones on the Go blog. I'm especially excited about installing commands at a specific version and module retraction. https://t.co/Ocu6aHa8Ws

🧠 Getting started with Go modules, or just need a refresher?

The person who has the most votes, Dan. It’s what we call “majority rule.”

You’re in favor of “most land rule.” We have a name for that type of government. It’s called “feudalism.”
