Wow, Jim Calabro is back with a riveting tale that combines the electrifying worlds of #Go, #CGO, and Zig! 
Apparently, creating a *statically linked* #executable is the new extreme sport, because why settle for dynamic linking when you can spend hours trimming Zig's "excess stuff"?

Building Statically Linked Go Executables with CGO and Zig
Syscall и cgo в Go
Привет, Хабр! В этой статье рассмотрим работу с системными утилитами в Go. Будем напрямую общаться с ядром, дергать системные вызовы и писать код на C, чтобы Go не чувствовал себя одиноким.

It's looking like #CGo is the main option for me to call one of my Rust libraries from a Go project.
So I'm curious about the downsides here.
The owner of the Go project won't allow CGo in their dependencies but has suggested creating a separate package and that being loaded dynamically.
I haven't done much with Go so trying to understand what I'm getting into here!
Any comment will be appreciated.
For my next trick, er project, it looks like I'm going to be playing with #CGo to call #RustLang from #GoLang and then have to find a way to handle the odd complex type like IO streams 
Nothing I ever do is straightforward. I'm the outlier of outliers... every, single, time. 
It's my own fault. I'm just a magpie coder who can't resist shiny new things.
If any of you have trodden this path before, please wave and wish me luck 
One of the great things about #golang is easy cross-compilation. However, most #golang #sqlite3 drivers make it considerably less easy by wrapping around the C implementation, requiring #cgo. Now there's a new `database/sql` compatible driver that gets rid of #cgo by wrapping the #sqlite #wasm build instead. Neat!

The #wasm build of #sqlite opens up great new possibilities in the #browser, especially when coupled with the Origin Private File System (#opfs). I've used it to implement importing huge #csv or #jsonl #datasets right in the browser. Import, validate, search, edit, close the browser and continue tomorrow, stream the database (with on-the-fly compression!) to the server when ready – it's all possible!
Another interesting use case I came across today: use it in #golang to get rid of #cgo!

A somewhat lengthy blog post about integration of Lua and Go (with LuaTeX) https://news.speedata.de/2024/02/21/mixinggoandlua/
Mostly about creating wrapper libraries in Go and Lua to extend the functionality of the rather limited Lua standard library and its lack of Unicode handling.
Does anybody know why we can't use #WSL to compile Go cgo code on #Windows?
I asked the question in this forum, but so far *crickets*...

Finally, with simd (hw acceleration), using sha256-simd in go and sha2 in rust through cgo (static library) is roughly equivalent, rust is slightly worse because of the overhead of cgo.
Fun experiment today with #RustLang and #Golang where I checked if it would be faster to compute a large number of sha256 hashes directly in go or by using #rust one of two ways: as a statically linked library with #cgo and as a separate process using unix-domain sockets for IPC. Turns out go is always faster, with my setup around 40% (35% faster than pure rust running on its own). I benchmarked pretty much all the crates I could find for it but go's "crypto/sha256" is damn fast.
