**Erik St. Martin:** Yeah, I would assume it runs on-prem or something like that for that... I'm not really sure. They have a browser extension that's cool too, so if you're just kind of like browsing around GitHub, looking, you can just kind of click and follow along, and jump to definition...
One of the things I love is being able to see examples of where this is used in other repos. That's always really useful to me, especially if the project itself doesn't have a lot of documentation on the usage of the library, you can kind of follow around and see projects that are using it.
**Carlisia Thompson:** Yeah.
**Brian Ketelsen:** It's like Stack Overflow, without the Stack.
**Carlisia Thompson:** It's hard to explain how good and useful it is... You have to use it, it's one of those things.
**Erik St. Martin:** And I know the next one you are particularly excited about, Brian.
**Brian Ketelsen:** Which one's that? Play With Docker?
**Erik St. Martin:** Yeah, Play With Docker.
**Brian Ketelsen:** Yeah, this one's really cool. I've found out about this just the other day, and I'm gonna kill poor Marcos' name, I'm sorry... Marcos Lilljedahl? I'm not sure, but on GitHub it's github.com/franela and there's a project called Play With Docker. It embeds a Docker-in-Docker instance and then allows y...
**Filippo Valsorda:** Wow, that's great!
**Brian Ketelsen:** And I get excited by that kind of stuff. And of course, it's open source and all written in Go, and I've already forked it.
**Carlisia Thompson:** We know what that means...
**Brian Ketelsen:** Yeah... \[laughs\]
**Erik St. Martin:** Something new and fun is gonna come out of this...
**Carlisia Thompson:** You're going to be very prolific in the next few days.
**Erik St. Martin:** Alright... Did anybody come across anything else, any new news? Or do we wanna jump into \#FreeSoftwareFriday?
**Brian Ketelsen:** It's time for the hashtag.
**Erik St. Martin:** Alright. You actually added something, Filippo... We tend to fill everybody in - we typically every week do a \#FreeSoftwareFriday where we shoutout to projects and/or maintainers of open source projects that are making our lives easier; they don't necessarily have to be Go, they just have to be op...
**Brian Ketelsen:** I'll give it a start, because I had a busy weekend this weekend putting out the GopherCon website, and these are two projects that I've probably talked about before, but I use them together and it turned out to be a peanut butter and chocolate sort of situation where everything just tasted better. S...
Ashley McNamara did the design and the images, I built the code side of it and we put up the GopherCon site -- well, it was kind of up before, but not really up. We made it a real site in just a weekend, and it was really awesome. I strongly encourage you to take a look at that combination. To make it just a little bit...
**Erik St. Martin:** Because Brian can't build anything without a generator...
**Brian Ketelsen:** \[52:07\] Yeah, if you're not generating code, you're doing it wrong. \[laughter\]
**Erik St. Martin:** So while we're mentioning the GopherCon site, this episode will probably be released just before the CFP closes, so if you're listening to this now and you wanna see your face on that website, it's probably gonna be your last moment to race along with the 200 other people who are going to submit in...
**Filippo Valsorda:** The organizers are great... You can just ask them to rehearse in their room the night before.
**Brian Ketelsen:** And it works.
**Filippo Valsorda:** Yup!
**Erik St. Martin:** Alright. Carlisia, do you have anything?
**Carlisia Thompson:** I don't have anything today.
**Erik St. Martin:** Alright. How about you, Filippo?
**Filippo Valsorda:** Yeah, my shoutout is for Dominik Honnef, who makes Static Check. Static Check is like a wider version of Go-vet, that does static analysis and looks for things that are clearly wrong, aiming for low or zero false positives. I ran it across all the codebases I could find at CloudFlare and I think I...
**Erik St. Martin:** It's a fantastic tool to run on your codebase before committing, for sure, and it only continues to evolve. And I guess that's largely thanks to you antagonizing him. \[laughter\]
**Brian Ketelsen:** I did notice in the Golang Dev -- no, Golang Nuts mailing list... One of the Golang mailing lists, that they're changing the import paths of those, so if you rely on those, double check your repository locations, because I know that he just renamed them.
**Erik St. Martin:** Nice. A little plug here... Florin in the GoTime FM channel just listed his Patreon account, if you want to support Dominik's work.
**Brian Ketelsen:** Oh, that's awesome. Please do.
**Filippo Valsorda:** Yes, definitely... Think of how many cycles it will save your developers, and just consider the dollar amount of that.
**Brian Ketelsen:** That's actually what I did for the Patreon for Vim Go. I took the amount of money I would pay on a commercial IDE and I just kind of averages out two or three hundred dollars a year license for a commercial IDE, and divided it by 12, and that's how much I give Vim Go every month, because it makes me...
**Erik St. Martin:** That's actually a good way to look at it. Alright, so my project this week is by somebody called Matt Hamilton and it's called ZIM. I've been a Zsh user for a long time and I've kind of gone through all my Zsh and Prezto and all that... It's hard, because you love these things and then your shell k...
**Brian Ketelsen:** I love having a sparkly PS1, but the last time I used all my Zsh it blew up something; I can't remember what it blew up, but it was bad.
**Erik St. Martin:** It was enough for you to switch straight to Bash.
**Brian Ketelsen:** We've got breaking news, live from the GoTime FM channel. Go 1.7.5 and Go 1.8rc3 are out.
**Filippo Valsorda:** Nice!
**Brian Ketelsen:** Fire up your downloaders.
**Filippo Valsorda:** Remember that there is the wonderful goget way to download the rc's.
**Brian Ketelsen:** \[55:59\] I absolutely love that.
**Erik St. Martin:** And with 1.8 being right at the five-yard line, 1.9 discussions have started, too. I think it was a Golang Nuts thread that Brad Fitzpatrick started, about discussions for things that are gonna take place in 1.9. We will link to that in the show notes if you wanna be involved in those conversations...
**Brian Ketelsen:** I think more interesting than Go 1.9 is the Go 2.0 discussions.
**Erik St. Martin:** Those will be interesting.
**Brian Ketelsen:** They will be very interesting. Stay tuned. I think we're getting generics and ponies. \[laughter\]
**Erik St. Martin:** There'll be some unicorns.
**Brian Ketelsen:** Yup, and a JVM backend. \[laughter\] I remember there was a Go JVM backend in the beginning.
