I like what the go authors think about dependencies being backwards compatible, but not everyone thinks that way, and let's face it, people make mistakes and make incompatible changes unintentionally.

I started a project last weekend (still a WIP), go get version[1], that basically proxies the `go get` commands, but fools it into thinking the master branch is either a tag or a version to get around some of these problems, while aiming to still work with the go tool.

For example, if you have a tag named v1.0.3, you would change your import path to be something like this:

gogetver.com/github.com/user/project.v1.0.3

There's also gopkg.in[2] which does something similar, although it appears to only work with github.

I've recently used Russ Cox's devweb for this:

I've been using a custom domain (for free) for over a year now. Really cool for simple static sites.


I run into this a lot using a "+" in my Gmail address. I like to use "username+site_name@gmail.com" for easy filtering, but there are still quite a large number of sites that do not accept this as valid, and it is extremely annoying.


Years ago, I must have signed up or given my email address to Urban Outfitters with a +uo. They happily continue to send me emails, but their unsubscribe form does not accept it as a valid address! I've tried reporting the bug, but now just send the messages straight to spam.


I think you can get paid $25 for each and every one of those. You've made every effort to unsubscribe, and they're still spamming you.


I've been using iTunes DJ a lot lately, but it doesn't appear to exist anymore. Am I missing something?


It's there, it's now called Up Next.


I noticed the same. I think that's replace with the "Up Next" feature - basically letting you queue songs to an ad-hoc playlist as you go.


Yeah, I couldn't find it either. I'm still setting up Genius, so it may have been rolled into that.


I'm still waiting for iTunes to have a normal queue that only plays the songs in it.


How would this differ from a playlist and/or Up Next?


I've been waiting for "Up Next" Since I migrated from Winamp - Being able to play a song, and then realize "I know what would go PERFECTLY after this", is very useful.

Or listening to music, selecting a much of tracks, and throwing them in the queue, without the hassle of creating a playlist ahead of time.

Very pleased!


I upgraded iTunes right after I wrote the post - Up Next is exactly what I was hoping for.


Hopefully more services start adding multi-factor authentication. So far, I have my Google Account, Dropbox, and now CloudFlare.

Hearing that Authy will soon support Google Authenticator tokens is great news! I have never encountered the "out of sync" problem with Google Authenticator described in the article, but the Authy app does feel more native on my iPhone.


What if the problem only affects a subset of users? Then wouldn't any application errors for unaffected users (e.g. a typo in code) say it is Heroku's fault when it really isn't?



Thanks, missed that. Also, I thought it released today :)


Do you have any more invites? I've been hoping to get one for awhile now.
