Easy Cross-Platform cgo Builds

When I first started writing Go software a little over a decade ago, one of the features I found particularly intriguing was the ability to build statically-linked binaries for multiple operating systems and architectures without a lot of headache.

ADO.NET vs Dapper: Comparison Guide for .NET Developers

In.NET, data access has evolved, but finding the right tool still comes down to control vs. convenience. You have to decide: do you prefer to write every query or move faster with something easier to maintain? Can you manage the boilerplate, or would you rather work with leaner syntax? For many.NET developers, the answers point to one of two popular tools—ADO.NET or Dapper. ADO.NET gives you complete control but with boilerplate and manual overhead.

NHibernate vs. Dapper: Which One Should You Choose for .NET Development?

Frameworks evolve, libraries change, and APIs get rewritten. But your ORM decision? That one sticks—it shapes your architecture, guides how your team writes queries, and affects how painful refactors become later on. In.NET, this choice often narrows to Dapper and NHibernate—two trusted tools with fundamentally different approaches. NHibernate offers deep abstraction, rich mappings, and built-in caching, while Dapper gives you raw speed, total SQL control, and zero overhead.
