What it does

Strict static analyzer for Go. Zero external dependencies — every rule is implemented from scratch on top of go/ast , go/types , and the go list command. The bug above ( transfer("o-42", "u-7") with parameters declared as userID, orderID string ) compiles, passes every test, and ships to production. No major Go linter today catches this class. gox does, by demanding inline /* paramName */ comments at the call site whenever two adjacent arguments share a type. ( namedargs lives in the opt-in style tier — see Rules .) The goal: catch the classes of bugs an LLM writing Go without supervision is most likely to introduce. Be loud, be opinionated, fail closed. Status: experimental. Built as a…from github.com

    I've created a powerful tool to help Go developers uncover the hidden giants in their compiled binaries. Go Size Analyzer is like an X-ray machine for your Go executables, revealing: Which dependencies are eating up your binary size Unexpected bloat from standard library or vendor packages Size changes between binary versions with a visual diff Key features that set it apart: Interactive treemap visualizations (check out the demo: https://gsa.zxilly.dev) Slick terminal UI for deep diving into package hierarchies Cross-platform support (works on Linux, macOS, and Windows binaries)…

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
