Go tooling essentials
golang.rakyll.org For example, to disable compiler optimizations and inlining,
you can use the following the gcflags.
$ go build -gcflags="-N -I"
It should be `-l` and not `-I`, such that it reads:
$ go build -gcflags="-N -l"Whoops, fixed the typo. Thanks!
It's quite amazing just how easy it is to see options and flags when first reading documentation but not remember them because they are outside the normal usage.
seeing examples of why you might want to use or remember flag/options is great.
I should revisit the docs for things like the old core gnu stuff to see what gems I've overlooked.
This post should be renamed from "Go tooling essentials" to "Useful flags for the Go tools" as per HN guidelines.

I wouldn't class the article title misleading enough to warrant editorialisation. So this submission is following HN guidelines.
The author has changed the title of the blog post!
I will never complain about HN titles again because people just can't understand that both HN titles, and article titles can change quickly. It's the nth time I mention that the title is wrong at that particular time, and instead of getting a "thanks" and all I get are downvotes by people that don't realise that either the title of the submission or the title of the article has changed in the meantime.
This is a mature community so downvotes often mean:
1) Your comment is meta. Meta comments - however useful - should be below all comments discussing article content. In some cases we downvote if it happened to bubble up.
2) When a point is no longer relevant, it makes sense to push it to the bottom of the stack. That is not a judgment on its merits.

Have a little more self-confidence about your contributions. If they're useful, just walk away knowing you did the right thing. You don't need to defend yourself as the veracity of it will make itself known given time.
I think it's fair to assume that people don't expect the article title to be changed after the HN submission.
But generally, I do wish fewer people moaned about HN titles. Even when the title matches the article, people often moan about it's grammer. In fact there was one submission last week where more people were discussing the title than were discussing the article. However I do appreciate the irony that I'm contributing to my complaint by discussing it like I am :)
