I’m a big fan of debian. I’m also a big fan of golang. One of the sacrifices debian makes to be so stable is lagging behind a bit on software versions. Debian users generally understand this, and also understand that it’s a good idea not to mess with the system versions of software. Here I will demonstrate how I configure my system to use whichever version of go I wish without harming the overall system configuration.
@h0bbl3s what’s hugo bear blog, does it reflow text to fit on phone screens without being impossible to read?
Hugo is a static website generator used frequently for blogs. hugo bear blog is just one of the themes for it I happened to like so I used it. It does build reactive sites so that they look good on a phone or a pc.
@h0bbl3s oh, okay. Thank you!
Good article. I learned long ago that, at least the case of your development environment, it’s best to install the latest upstream release instead of just relying on the system provided version. Go makes doing this extremely easy relative to some other languages out there.
