Most of the links point to 3rd-party blog posts that could be taken down any time.

I think a better GitHub project would be to cache the content of those articles — in accordance with their respective copyright terms, of course. I was personally disappointed that not many books have been referenced there, nor formal papers. Good list nonetheless, for people who have no idea what to read or where to start.

So, are those posts available via gopher://, or why is this called a gopher reading list?

Go programmers are called gophers. Nothing to do with the gopher protocol.

So, not only did the go programming language overshadow the other go programming language, their gophers are also overshadowing the other gophers? This is a bit annoying.

Words can mean more than one thing. Are you new to the world?

As I understand it, at least in the US, there are copyright exceptions for archives.

Perhaps you can suggest to the author that they generate archives [0] for each post and provide a backup link.
