Your source for wide-ranging discussions from all around the Go community. Panelists include Mat Ryer, Jon Calhoun, Natalie Pistunovich, Johnny Boursiquot, Angelica Hill, Kris Brandow, and Ian Lopshire.

We discuss cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, microservices, Kubernetes, Docker... oh and also Go!

Some people search for GoTime or GoTimeFM and can't find the show, so now the strings GoTime and GoTimeFM are in our description too.

Go Time: Golang, Software Engineering

Mat gathers the entire cast (sans Natalie, sadly) alongside our producer, Jerod Santo, for one last Go Time. That's right, this is Go Time's finale episode. After eight years and 340 episodes, we are going out on top. Join us one last time, you won't regret it! 

We share our feelings, reminisce on the good times, list some of our favorite moments & share a few opinions, which may (or may not) be unpopular. 😉

That's Go Time!

With so many great programming languages having emerged in the last decade, many of them purpose-built, when and where does Go still make sense and how do you make the case for it at work?

Go Time producer, Jerod Santo, ranks & reviews the most (un)popular opinions of 2023.

Unpop roundup! 2023

With the number of libraries available to Go developers these days, you'd think building a CLI app was now a trivial matter. But like many things in software development, it depends. In this episode, we explore the challenges that arose during one team's journey towards a production-ready CLI.

Crawl, walk & run your way to usable CLIs in Go

Writing a shell is rarely the kind of project you take on lightly. In this episode, Johnny is joined by Qi Xiao to explore how to go about such a feat in Go.

Yasir Ekinci joins Johnny & Mat to talk about how virtually every Observability vendor is rushing to add Generative AI capabilities to their products and what that entails from both a development and usability perspective.

AI for Observability

The last time we did a roundup of our unpopular opinion polls, it was November of 2021!
That's too long ago, so today we fix that bug. Join Go Time producer, Jerod Santo, as he ranks & reviews the most (un)popular opinions of 2022.

Unpop roundup! 2022

In this episode, we will be talking to Russ Cox, who joined the Go team at Google in 2008 and has been the Go project tech lead since 2012, about stepping back & handing over the reins to Austin Clements, who will also join us! We also have Cherry Mui, who is stepping into Austin's previous role as tech lead of the “Go core”.

Russ Cox on passing the torch

Tech twitter ("tech X"?) is abuzz with Paul Graham's Founder Mode essay. How does that affect you or come into play when you're not a founder? Does it matter at all to you, your projects & your code?

"Founder Mode" at work when you're not a founder

In this follow-up to episode #306, "How soon until AI takes my job?", the gang of (grumpy?) veteran software engineers candidly chat about how their day to day is changing in the midst of improving AI tooling & hype.

How I lost my (old) job to AI

Dependencies! We need them, but how do we use them effectively and safely? In this week's episode Kris is joined by Ian and Johnny to discuss the polyfill.io supply chain attack, the history of dependency management and usage in Go, and the Go Proverb that "a little copying is better than a little dependency". Of course, we wrap up the episode with some Unpopular Opinions!

Dependencies are dangerous
