Should – Expressive Assertions for Go
A few months ago I posted this here. Since then I've added a bunch of new assertions: BeSorted, BeSameTime, BeWithin, BeError/BeErrorIs/BeErrorAs, formatted custom messages, and some renames for clarity. The core idea is still the same — when a test fails, you should immediately know why without having to add debug prints. https://github.com/Kairum-Labs/should

I always strive to write better, clean and readable code. But I often find unit tests are hard to read, and especially harder to quickly identify what are the important pieces, or even what the test is testing about. So I came up with this lightweight library to help enforce unit tests with a Given-When-Then structure. I hope you find this useful. Any feedback are welcome. https://github.com/cobrakai-lab/Cobrakai.GWTUnit

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
