Your source for diverse discussions from around the Go community. This show records LIVE every Tuesday at 3pm US Eastern. Join the Golang community and chat with us during the show in the #gotimefm channel of Gophers slack. Panelists include Mat Ryer, Jon Calhoun, Carmen Andoh, Johnny Boursiquot, Angelica Hill, Mark Bates, Kris Brandow, and Natalie Pistunovich. We discuss cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, microservices, Kubernetes, Docker… oh and also Go! Some people search for GoTime or GoTimeFM and can’t find the show, so now the strings GoTime and GoTimeFM are in our description too.
Gobot, Hardware, Gatekeeping
Ron Evans joined the show to talk about Gobot, writing software for hardware, and open source software’s role in improving the human condition.

Hardware related things:
What we need for Golang to really provide the best IOT/robotics development tools:
Great Bluetooth LE support
Great OpenCV support
Golang on RTOS like Zephyr, MBED
Shared set of low level hardware interfaces
Why Open Source?
Let’s discuss the philosophy of open source. Is the purpose of OSS just to “save money”, or perhaps there is something else to it…
Interesting Go Projects and News
Proposal: Standard Logger Interface
GopherCon Speakers Announced!! (how could we forget that??)
Free Software Friday!
Each week on the show we give a shout out to an open source project or community that’s made an impact in our day to day developer lives.
