  The Go Pointer Magic

Go is a language with the pointer type, by which we can Pass pointer into a function and update value in-place. Add methods to a struct as (* T) A, which is different from (T) A(). However, the pointer is type-safe in Go, meaning that there are such restrictions of the pointer. Different types of pointers are unconvertible. Pointer type cannot be used for calculation. Pointer types cannot be compared, either == nor !=. No mutual assignment between different pointer-...

Nowadays, Redis has become one of the most popular cache solution in the Internet industry. Although relational database systems (SQL) bring many awesome properties such as ACID, the performance of the database would degrade under high load in order to maintain these properties. In order to fix this problem, many companies & websites have decided to add a cache layer between the application layer (i.e., the backend code which handles the business logic) and the storage layer (i.e., the SQL d...

With the release of Go 1.22, the Go team addressed a long-standing issue with the for-range loop variable scoping, which had been a common pitfall for developers writing concurrent code. Specifically, the problem was that the loop variable in a for-range loop was reused across iterations, leading to unexpected behavior when closures were involved. The Issue Before Go 1.22 Consider the following example: package forange import "fmt" func Do() { done := make(chan bool) values := []string...
