This week we talk about multiple in-the-news topics like the SalesForce announcement that Heroku is in ~maintenance mode and we surface the big observability topic as I'm preparing to implement something basic for StaticBackend and since Morten already have this in his open source project we duscuss about ways to add this after the fct and some parts of tracing your system.

Meet Morten, I said I wanted to try and bring co-hosts in 2026 to test how it feel to have co-hosts. We're starting this with a discussion on LLM and tech education and a little bit of education more extended. As someone that create courses we've all more or less felt a drop as AI and LLM are used in ~tech training or does people even still wants to get new skills and what not. It's a major concerns and like most people are realizing after using an LLM seriously, well let's just say that an expert is kind of very hard to replace, especially when it's time to learn new skills.

I'm restarting this year after a small break, go podcast() turned 4 years which is crazy, although I'd have hope to have had a better consistency publishing episodes, it is what it is ;). I'm looking at bringing co-hosts from multiple background to add some diversity to the episodes, if you're intrigued please reach out.I've also decided to un-archived and restart working on StaticBackend, my Go open source backend-as-a-service project I started in 2019. I'm missing the pace of working on a problem, thinking about it for some time and implementing a solution while adding tests etc. I've recorded this episode twice because the first time I kind of sliped into a more dark / negative mood, and that's not what I want for the pod and not how I'm feeling about bringing StaticBackend back.Go's v1 "it will build" compatibility is underrated.Links:StaticBackend (GitHub)StaticBackend (website)Act run GitHub action locallyPlease if you can talk about the podcast it would help greatly.

I asked Delaney Gillilan to return to go podcast() to revisit datastar, a very impressive tool that enable backend to push changes to the frontend of a web application. In episode 54 we covered the "what is datastar", in this episode I wanted to dive a little deeper since I personally finally started to jump and use the library in projects. I have been a dedicated user of HTMX and Alpine for a long time already and once I tried datastar I found myself capable of great interactions between the frontend and backend and mostly keep the state that made sense in the backend. It's hard to explain, you'd have to test it to realize it's true power.Links:Datastar websiteIf you'd want to support the show you may talk about it, join the Slack channel #gopodcast.

This week I try to keep an open mind and we talk LLMs and AI with Markus Wüstenberg. Markus is a friend of the show and I noticed he was using a lot of LLM lately, I basically learn a lot by doing these podcast interviews, so I was interested to hear about what Markus is using LLM and AI in the systems he ships and also how does he uses AI as a software engineer in the day-to-day.Personally my experience so far is very mixed, sometimes it's good other it's pretty frustrating with LLMs either integrating functionalities augmented by LLMs or trying to integrate a coding agent in my day-to-day, let's just say that I'm not there yet. But I wanted to hear about someone that do have real production experiences using these things, and Markus gives a solid fundation to demistified some aspects, at least for me ;).Links:gomponents + Datastar:Markus's Claude Code skillsMarkus's own LLM abstraction layer in Go called GAIAndy Masley on AI and the environmentCharm's AI library in GoMarkus's websiteAs always if you're finding value in the pod talk about it, you may also purchase my courses, I launched Zero to Gopher 3 weeks ago, there's 50% off for listeners of the show.

My desire to run a sustainable software business started somewhere near 2003 in the Business of Software forum. I've built, sold, and acquired a dozen of products since that time, with I have to admit the majority of failures.I've seen three distincts era for software companies, we're definitably in the 3rd one, one that still has to be identified as good or bad.Software companies, especially calm company is excruciably hard to be successful at. But when you're honest and define what is success to you and set out realistic goals, there's ways to succeed even without have $2m in ARR.Go is of course a great choice to build a SaaS, but software product has almost zero to do with technology, especially at first and you'll most certainly end up rewriting to a v2 at some point after learning what the product really need to be. So the good old advice of use what you're most proficent in to write code is most often than not the correct answer.I talk about my experiences trying to run a sustainable software company for the last 17 years.Links:My last course Zero to Gopher with a discount for listenersSupport the show on PatreonAs always if you can talk about the show it helps spread the words.

Jakub is returning to the show, he's about to launch a book called "50 Go Testing Mistakes" and we talk about the most common mistakes Gophers are making when it testing. Having a trustable testing suite is known to be critical for long-live software system.

One university published attracted my attention, because it was on Go, it's titled: "Assessing Golang Static Analysis Tools on Real-World Issues".Do you find your static analysis and linters tools could be more helpful when reporting issues?I'm mixed feeling really, I think that they're pretty damn good. Tools can always improve for sure, not sure if we will need the help of LLMs to mix static analysis checks and LLM analysis / proposed fixes, maybe that will be the next step for those tools.Links:Paper's link

Segurança em Go não é só "rodar um scanner e rezar". Neste episódio, nós destrinchamos como escrever Go com cabeça de atacante: governança de dependências (e os perigos do type‑squatting), revisão de go.mod, uso criterioso da Standard Library e por que não usar latest em imagens. Também conectamos tecnologia com processo: repositórios privados, políticas de aprovação e pipeline que barra regressão antes do deploy.A conversa nasce de casos reais: do typo em (GHCR vs GHRC) que captura credenciais até a confusão com pacotes falsos tipo BoltDB look‑alike. Discutimos supply chain ponta a ponta, cache do Go Proxy, licenças (quando fugir de GPL) e boas práticas para autenticação.E claro, vamos além do código: SBOM no build, assinatura e verificação de imagens, OPA/Admission Control para políticas em Kubernetes, capabilities mínimas e validação de entradas com timeouts bem definidos. É papo prático, com nosso humor de sempre, para deixar segurança como padrão — não como tarefa de último minuto.Links Importantes: - Marcelo Pires - https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcpires/ - Matheus Faria - https://www.linkedin.com/in/matheusfm/ - João Brito - https://www.linkedin.com/in/juniorjbn - Assista ao FilmeTEArapia - https://youtu.be/M4QFmW_HZh0?si=HIXBDWZJ8yPbpflM - Post sobre ghrc.io - https://www.linkedin.com/posts/juniorjbn_someone-is-typosquatting-ghrcio-not-github-activity-7364387040618045441-UB88/ - Typosquat - https://devops.com/typosquat-supply-chain-attack-targets-go-developers/ - https://go.dev/doc/tutorial/govulncheck - vuln.go.dev - https://github.com/anchore/syft - https://github.com/anchore/grype - https://github.com/google/capslock - https://github.com/aquasecurity/trivy - LFD121 - https://training.linuxfoundation.org/training/developing-secure-software-lfd121/ - https://deps.dev/ - https://devops.com/typosquat-supply-chain-attack-targets-go-developers/Participe de nosso programa de acesso antecipado e tenha um ambiente mais seguro em instantes! https://getup.io/zerocve
