The Impacts of an Insecure Software Supply Chain
Today, software regularly integrates open-source code from third-party sources into applications. While this practice empowers developers to create more capable software in a shorter time frame, it brings with it the risk of introducing inadequately vetted code. How aware are we of the security of our open-source code? Most of us use pip or npm […]

** What is an addressing mode? **
In a recent post I referenced addressing modes. But what the heck are they!?

Setting the stage

The instruction register holds the program instruction that is currently being run.

A fixed number of bits within the instruction register represent the operation, e.g. “op. code” — examples of these instructions include things like add, subtract, load, and store. We can imagine the instruction register like this:

Instead of banging my head on Advent of Code, I coded something useful today: Text-to-Speech for GoBlog using the official Google Text-to-Speech API. When posting, an audio file is generated automatically from the post content. And, I have to praise myself for this, I documented the feature as well! 😄 ⌘ Read more

Day 16 of Advent of Code is so confusing that I will not finish today’s puzzle. I wonder if yesterday was my last day with Advent of Code, or will the puzzles become more understandable and easier again in the next few days? Maybe I’m just more the practical type. I like programming, but such complex algorithms are not really my thing. And in the end, Advent of Code is supposed to be fun… ⌘ Read more

Underscores in Imports
Underscores in Imports Underscores in Go serve a few purposes. In U+005F, “_” is a letter (as a string). You may also see them as [ “_” ] in between successive digits and a base prefix. In this case, it’s to improve the readability of the code. You may also see them in function names, e.g., imaginary_lit.
The underscore is quite a versatile tool. They even have their place in defining the kind of action that will take place in a function. ⌘ Read more

I’ve never really done test-driven development (TDD). But Advent of Code offers the perfect opportunity for that, because there is already an example input and an example result. So it is possible to create a test first and program until the test passes. ⌘ Read more

I’m a bit skeptical about GitHub Copilot, but now that I’ve really tried it out for the first time, I’m amazed by its capabilities. Copilot doesn’t replace programming, but it does take a lot of the work out of it. What works well, for example, is the completion of comments in the code. ⌘ Read more

Struct Tags with Underscore Before Function Names
In the Go world, an underscore (_) before an expression is called a blank identifier. As you may already know, identifiers—user-defined program components, e.g., name of a function, variable, or package—in Go must be preceded by an underscore or a letter (a-z or A-Z). If they aren’t, you’ll receive the compile- time error which essentially means Go cannot read the syntax of your code (you didn’t write your code correctly … ⌘ Read more
