goblin_0xGO @goblin0xgo.bsky.social · 30/07/2026Content Warning - NSFW I’ve been asked to join pair programming with 2 other devs to help them configure an env. I opened .bashrc in Vim, exported a few variables, fixed the $PATH and a few aliases, and :wq. The response I didn’t expect to get was: “Why didn’t you ask Claude Code?” No comments 010

goblin_0xGO @goblin0xgo.bsky.social · 22/03/2026After a year of #rust projects, 3.14GB of compiled crates accumulated on a MacBook. I found `cargo-cache` to intelligently manage this cache. It avoids deleting all cached dependencies by praising re-extracting local archives instead of re-downloading from the internet. #softwaredevelopement 100

goblin_0xGO @goblin0xgo.bsky.social · 19/12/2025I ran into a trouble while trying to clean up my GitHub repos. GitHub doesn’t provide a UI for a bulk delete.

goblin_0xGO @goblin0xgo.bsky.social · 17/12/2025Reverse engineering slowly fades away. When I was just starting my career, we were trying to invent a new bicycle every time we hit a wall with an unknown implementation. #programming 120
goblin_0xGO @goblin0xgo.bsky.social · 12/12/2025Learn C but work with Go/Rust/Zig. C teaches why memory, pointers matter. They teach a hardware aware mindset. But modern engineering demands abstractions without footguns. I’m for learning C as core to CS, but I'd rather spend less time on low-level details. #golang #rust #zig 130

goblin_0xGO @goblin0xgo.bsky.social · 20/10/2025How legacy code always seems to end up as one big mess? It's a buildup of all those "temp" expedient shortcuts we take under pressure. Connections in the system get so twisted that no one can reason out the consequences of a change. That's when the fun stops and the headaches begin. #Programming 010
goblin_0xGO @goblin0xgo.bsky.social · 20/10/2025TODO is a 𝗧otally 𝗢ptional, 𝗗elay 𝗢pportunity.

goblin_0xGO @goblin0xgo.bsky.social · 25/05/2025Go's simple imperative loops make data transformations verbose & error-prone, but Rust's .map(), .filter(), & .fold() offer better composability, leading to more maintainable code.

goblin_0xGO @goblin0xgo.bsky.social · 22/05/2025In addition to the direct memory manipulations in Go, here's how to manually allocate memory for a struct using the unsafe package without relying on high-level built-in allocation functions like new() or make(). Ugly, but doable 😉 #go #golang #tip #programmin 130
