    I asked chatgpt to write a go program for this, this looks roughly correct (I have used both libraries before) obviously this won’t be enough for your particular use case. I imagine you can integrate an RSS feed to your site, however if you’re using something like hugo perhaps output it as a csv.

    Super low effort but a good start I think:

    package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"os"
	"strings"
	"time"

	git "github.com/go-git/go-git/v5"
	rss "github.com/jteeuwen/go-pkg-rss"
)

const (
	timeout = 5 // timeout in seconds for the RSS feed generation
)

// Repository represents a git repository with its URL
type Repository struct {
	URL string
}

// Repositories is the list of git repositories
var Repositories = []Repository{
	{URL: "https://github.com/owner/repo1"},
	{URL: "https://github.com/owner/repo2"},
	// Add more repositories here
}

// FetchLatestTag fetches the latest tag from a git repository
func FetchLatestTag(repoURL string) (string, string, error) {
	// Clone the repository to a temporary directory
	dir, err := os.MkdirTemp("", "repo")
	if err != nil {
		return "", "", err
	}
	defer os.RemoveAll(dir)

	_, err = git.PlainClone(dir, true, &git.CloneOptions{
		URL:      repoURL,
		Progress: os.Stdout,
	})
	if err != nil {
		return "", "", err
	}

	repo, err := git.PlainOpen(dir)
	if err != nil {
		return "", "", err
	}

	tags, err := repo.Tags()
	if err != nil {
		return "", "", err
	}

	var latestTag string
	var latestCommitTime time.Time

	err = tags.ForEach(func(ref *plumbing.Reference) error {
		tag := ref.Name().Short()
		commit, err := repo.CommitObject(ref.Hash())
		if err != nil {
			return err
		}
		if commit.Committer.When.After(latestCommitTime) {
			latestCommitTime = commit.Committer.When
			latestTag = tag
		}
		return nil
	})
	if err != nil {
		return "", "", err
	}

	return latestTag, latestCommitTime.Format(time.RFC1123Z), nil
}

// GenerateRSS generates an RSS feed from the latest tags of the repositories
func GenerateRSS() string {
	feed := rss.Feed{
		Title:       "Latest Tags from Git Repositories",
		Link:        &rss.Link{Href: "http://example.com/"},
		Description: "This feed provides the latest tags from a list of git repositories.",
		Created:     time.Now(),
	}

	for _, repo := range Repositories {
		tag, date, err := FetchLatestTag(repo.URL)
		if err != nil {
			log.Printf("Error fetching latest tag for repository %s: %v", repo.URL, err)
			continue
		}
		feed.Items = append(feed.Items, &rss.Item{
			Title:       fmt.Sprintf("Latest tag for %s: %s", repo.URL, tag),
			Link:        &rss.Link{Href: repo.URL},
			Description: fmt.Sprintf("The latest tag for repository %s is %s, created on %s.", repo.URL, tag, date),
			Created:     time.Now(),
		})
	}

	var rssFeed strings.Builder
	rssFeed.WriteString(xml.Header)
	if err := feed.Write(&rssFeed); err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("Error generating RSS feed: %v", err)
	}

	return rssFeed.String()
}

func main() {
	rssFeed := GenerateRSS()
	fmt.Println(rssFeed)
}

    I feel like I have been doing this all my life. I think it’s more to do with the depth of understanding too. But the environment has to support it, if there is an expectation that everyone is an expert from day one, and there is no room for self improvement then it can’t be done.

    As stated there are down falls with the approach such as lack of exposure to new ideas. You still need to look just not study. But to me it’s also a work/life balance policy. But don’t practice it in extreme as it can hold you back. Good work places should allow for some learning time and I’m hoping that gets normalized.

    The busybox one seems great as it comes with shells. php looks like it would add some issues.

    Personally since I use go, I would create a go embedded app, which I would make a deb, rpm, and a dockerfile using “goreleaser”

    package main

import (
	"embed"
	"net/http"
)

//go:embed static/*
var content embed.FS

func main() {
	http.HandleFunc("/", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		// Serve index.html as the default page
		http.ServeContent(w, r, "index.html", nil, content)
	})

	// Serve static files
	http.Handle("/static/", http.StripPrefix("/static/", http.FileServer(http.FS(content))))

	// Start the server
	http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)
}

    Would be all the code but allows for expansion later. However the image goreleaser builds doesn’t come with busybox on it so you can’t docker exec into it. https://goreleaser.com/customization/docker/

    Most of the other options including the PHP one seem to include a scripting language or a bunch of other system tools etc. I think that’s overkill

    I feel discord does really well because the way it structures it “servers” really focuses around individuals rather than groups. Which then creates an incentive for a certain type of person to “grow their server” bringing more activity onto discord. This is confounded by both a) you join all channels on a server, 2) the ability of individuals to “mute” servers or channels; combined it means it fills up with a bunch of idlers in a way which is worse than IRC as it’s unlikely they will ever read the contents or participate beyond asking a question then leaving.
