Indeed! This blog post is also relevant: https://cue.dev/blog/guardrailing-intuition-towards-reliable...

https://github.com/mvdan/sh/blob/master/syntax/canonical.sh is one small example.

For the first two caveats, I actually agree that we could and should handle ambiguous input. It just hasn't been a priority because doing that properly would be quite a bit of work…

gofumpt will never have formatting knobs, following gofmt's design. But if one of gofumpt's rules forbids a style which is reasonable even if it's not very popular, we might want t…

You might be getting confused. gofmt does not warn about lacking comments, that was golint, which has since been deprecated. gofmt does not divide or re-join imports into groups, b…

I hadn't really considered that people might want to do this. From experience reading and writing Go code for ~8 years at multiple companies, the only times I've seen leading or tr…

It's not quite as simple as that :) I think upstreaming half of gofumpt's additions to gofmt would be reasonable, but the person who wrote and maintains gofmt is Robert Griesemer, …

I agree that empty lines can help. I've been careful to only remove empty lines which, in my opinion, don't help when structuring the code or making it more readable. If you have e…

I'm the author of that presentation, and I'm surprised to see the very similar content and structure, to say the least. I left a comment on the Reddit thread[0] to see if I'm missi…

It might lead to fewer allocations in complex programs, as the compiler is able to put more in the stack under some edge cases.

Simple Go binaries do tend to be statically linked, which is where I think the confusion comes from. The most common source of dynamic linking is cgo, since CGO_ENABLED=1 is the de…

These are the slides from a talk; I didn't spend the extra time to change the format or write down what I explained. After all, I didn't post them here, someone else did :) I perso…

See https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Go-Release-Cycle . We're one month into the three-month freeze, so it's unlikely that new features are going to be merged in before the tree r…

If anyone wants the recording, this is the timestamp in the meetup recording before an edited version is available: https://youtu.be/RGeHsqj2RWo?t=2h16m11s I can see that the slide…

I'm going to go on assuming that you're not being sarcastic :) As I mentioned in another comment, once Go's wasm support is shipped and stable, I hope to make the JS package smalle…

That's a good point. I am adding more and more examples to the Go documentation these days. Ideally I'd just point the JS people at the Go docs and examples, but the translation is…
