Arrays in Rust are fixed size, and Rust requires that every element in an array is initialized to a valid value when the array is initialized. The result of these requirements is array initialization in Rust is a much deeper topic than it would seem.

While learning how to write multithreaded code in Java or C++ can make computer science students reconsider their career choices, calling a function asynchronously in Go is just a matter of prefixing a function call with the go keyword. However, writing concurrent Go code can also be risky, as vicious concurrency bugs can slowly sneak into your application. Before you know it, there could be thousands of hanging goroutines slowing down your application, ultimately causing it to crash. This blog post provides a Semgrep rule that can be used in a bug-hunting quest and includes a link to a repository of specialized Semgrep rules that we use in our audits. It also explains how to use one of those rules to find a particularly pesky type of bug in Go: goroutine leaks.

If you need to parse a language, or document, from JavaScript there are fundamentally three ways to solve the problem:
- use an existing library supporting that specific language: for example a library to parse XML
- building your own custom parser by hand
- a tool or library to generate a parser: for example ANTLR, that you can use to build parsers for any language
