Breaking my Twitter silence because @junyer has passed away, and this is the site where he was most active. I know we had at least a few followers in common. There is a public memorial page of sorts at https://t.co/rBLd0C5Vdq.

Wirth and Gutknecht did this–documented code for a full system–with Project Oberon, published as a hardcover book in 1992 and recently updated as a free PDF: https://t.co/3E1lbmTrgk Like Knuth’s books, it’s fascinating to flip through and (for me) hard to read cover-to-cover.

What TikTok-to-Twitter bot has been posting tweets with Go package fmt errors in them for the past year+ without any of its users caring? https://t.co/orsVQqRusw

I write @golang most days, so it was fun to have @_rsc on the @consoledotdev podcast to chat with @jeanqasaur and me about the origins of the language, running a large open source project, and principles of language design! https://t.co/hxJDIhcD0v

Go is transforming the supply chain security landscape,by fixing the foundation-the language itself. From early adopter of OSV, to extensive pkg insights, curated vulns info, low noise & reliable vulns scanning, it is setting an example for the ecosystem -
