About this episode
Dylan's back this week joining Kris and Matt to tackle Go's UUID proposal (#62026). What Dylan thinksshould have been the least contentious proposal in the history of Go. The panel digs into the proposed API's shortcomings, the flawed ecosystem survey used to justify it, and why the Go team's library design philosophy doesn't hold up. The conversation builds into a broader critique of community dynamics and code of conduct double standards.As always, we've got supporter content! This week that includes the psychological cost of dismissive governance and who actually gets heard, the opaque proposal review process, what the Go developer survey numbers really say about community trust, and a debate over whether GitHub is even the right platform for proposal discussions.
