The slices.Clone function is pretty simple: it makes a copy of a slice of any type.
func Clone[S ~[]E, E any](s S) S { return append(s[:0:0], s...) }\ This works because appending to a slice with zero capacity will allocate a new backing array. The function body winds up being shorter than the function signature, which is in part because the body is short, but also because the signature is long. In this blog post we’ll explain why the signature is written the way that it is.
You’ve probably used a weather app. Maybe you’ve even built one. But do you actually know what a radar map is really telling you – or hiding from you?
As a developer and founder of Rain Viewer, I’ve spent the last decade parsing radar feeds, filtering out noise, and making chaotic atmospheric data digestible for humans – and APIs. If you’re building anything that touches geolocation, logistics, drones, or weather-dependent automation, understanding radar is more than curiosity – it’s the base.
Here’s your crash course in reading radar like a dev, not a tourist.
Bitcoin’s summer rally accelerated in the early hours of 11 July, when the benchmark cryptocurrency sliced through $118,000 and printed exchange highs that peaked above $118,800, depending on venue data.

Ranking crypto “investment” by country is difficult. Since on-chain value flows are better than survey guesswork, I use Chainalysis’s regional and national tallies, supported by additional internet research. Admittedly, the time period for the Chainalysis figures ends in June 2024, but it gives us a rough idea of who uses the most crypto. These are rough estimates:
Taylor Swift ticket sales brought the entire platform to its knees… a crypto exchange saw 10x its regular traffic during a price swing… holiday deals dropped at midnight, and retail sites scrambled to keep up. These weren’t just high-traffic moments. They were log storms.
The XRP ETF conversation is no longer just speculation, and many industry participants and investors are on high alert. Interestingly, there are a string of important regulatory deadlines falling in July that might influence when and how an XRP ETF will hit the market.
