‘Our negotiating partners will have to make concessions that enable us to preserve out security and crucial national interests’.

Palestinians must make concessions to Israel’s national interests for the future Middle East peace talks to bring fruit, says the Israeli prime minister. The negotiations promise to be hard, with a wave of criticism already coming from both sides.

Benjamin Netanyahu said his two principal goals in the negotiations would be maintaining a Jewish majority in Israel and avoiding creation of an Iran-backed “terrorist state” on its borders.

Pass Interface Parameters by Reference in GolangA simple diary about a simple thing that I learned about Pass By Reference in Golangpass by reference on interface parameter in GolangBack to the college days, I remember there are 2 ways to pass a parameter to a function. One passes by value, and the other one passes by reference. Both of these ways have a different concept and sometimes it brings confusion to the programmer.In simple terms, pass by value is when we pass the parameter without a pointer to that origin address of the value. And pass by reference is when we pass the parameter with a pointer to the given parameter.In Golang, we can see these two in this example below.func passByValue(item string)func passByReference(item *string)Pass By Reference and Pass By Value in (...)

It should come as no surprise to most that Google launched their own programming language. The company has been moving aggressively into practically every technological sector imaginable — and more often than not, they end up revolutionizing the sector they’re looking to develop. It’s now been over a decade since Go entered production, and while it might not have the install base of languages like Python and JavaScript yet, Google’s proprietary language has a lot to offer. Here’s everything you need to consider before you decide to pick up this language.Pro: ease of useWhile Go might not be as popular as JavaScript or Python, it does have one important thing in common with them: it’s eminently easy to understand. The syntax is clean and accessible to newcomers, and there aren’t a lot of (...)

Washington abandonne les termes d’"occupation israélienne" pour le Golan
13 mars 2019 Par Agence Reuters
▻https://www.mediapart.fr/journal/international/130319/washington-abandonne-les-termes-doccupation-israelienne-pour-le-golan?ongl

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Les termes « d’occupation israélienne », employés jusqu’ici par les Etats-Unis pour le plateau du Golan syrien, ont été remplacés par « sous contrôle israélien », dans le rapport annuel du département d’Etat sur les droits de l’homme dans le monde, publié mercredi.

Les mots « occupé » ou « sous occupation » ne sont par ailleurs plus utilisés pour la Cisjordanie et la bande de Gaza, dont Israël s’est également emparées lors de la guerre des Six Jours, en 1967.

L’Etat hébreu a annexé le plateau du Golan en 1981, ce que le Conseil de sécurité de l’Onu a jugé nul et non avenu.

Simulating a fraud-proof blockchainIn a previous article, I wrote a summary of a paper about Fraud Proofs written by Mustafa Al-Bassam, Alberto Sonnino, and Vitalik Buterin. They propose a secure on-chain scaling solution that gives strong security guarantees.The goal of this article is verifying their results regarding the data-availability section by simulating the system. The paper uses some well-known combinatorics formulas to prove the security of the network in various setups. Since the model is probabilistic, we can make a program to simulate it. After running the #simulation enough times and averaging the results, we hopefully see that we get the same results.I decided to do this not because the mathematics of the paper didn’t convince me, but because I think it would be fun to (...)

“1. Israel is making a major push for US recognition of Israeli sovereignty in the #Golan Heights. Yesterday, PM Netanyahu called for it directly in his press conference with NSA John Bolton yesterday. It’s worth considering the pros, cons, and implications of such a move.” / Twitter

2. One has to assume the Trump Admin is giving this step serious consideration. Maybe the decision is already made, & it is just a question of announcing it. It could be presented as compensation to Israel for the withdrawal of US troops from Syria, which Israel advised against.

The inspiration for this post came from a project at work. I was building a service that required the comparison of two Json objects. The catch was that I needed to be able to replace keys, filter out paths, and apply comparison functions to specific nodes.Obviously, a standard library comparison function such as reflect.DeepEqual() would not work. ?The solution was to build a AST(Abstract Syntax Tree) modeled off of the Json objects. Every Node in the tree represents either a string, integer, array, or object.By doing this I would allow for the flexibility to more easily apply algorithms onto the data.To build this we’ll start with the Lexer to generate Tokens. Then move onto the Parser which will take the tokens and match them to Json grammar. Finally, we’ll add AST hooks to generate the (...)

Anyhow, I have been writing JavaScript for close to half a decade and I thought it’d be nice to learn a different language with a different mental model and development paradigms.Starting out, my biggest issues I had with Golang was the lack of tooling and the by-now infamous GOPATH requirement. The latter is a matter of taste by Google’s engineers, but something could be done about the former.I had been searching for tools that would allow me to replicate the ease of which I could run my Golang services in development, as (...)

Google’s announcement of Go Cloud, a set of libraries for building cross (cloud) platform applications, is remarkable for how it recapitulates all the arguments and lessons about client cross platform.I should note that having been part of a large company, I experienced how often the news cycle is about how “Microsoft decided this” or “Microsoft thinks that” when often the announcement reflects the thinking and work of just one, often relatively small, group within the larger whole. It often is not some part of a grand company strategy but just a local project and initiative.

Decentralized package management is an exciting area of tool development for today’s developers. Decentralized package managers have the potential to remove centralized points of failure from the interconnected network of modern software libraries. They give development teams a straight-forward way to ensure their internal networks of code are always available, while at the same time ensuring redundancy across the entire Internet. Decentralized package managers can make our code, one of modern society’s most valuable outputs, more resistant to tampering, censorship, and manipulation.That said, decentralized package management is still incomplete. There are many issues to sort out when publishing our code into networks built around an immutability of digital information where unlimited (...)

panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereferenceIf you ever used Go, you probably saw this error at least once. Somewhere a nil pointer or nil interface was passed to a function that doesn’t handle nil. In all cases this is a #programming error, either the function should handle nil or the caller shouldn’t have passed nil to the function. This Go experience report will try to make the case that nil is often not needed and being forced to have nil-able pointers and interfaces can cause panics in production. We’ll also briefly discuss how Rust solves this issue and how their solution could be applied to Go.Nil Can Be UsefulLet’s first start off by showing why allowing a value to be nil can be useful. The main use case for nil is indicating that a value is “missing”. A (...)
