From bdb7560b8d54a1037e3dedfa22a8cf978d289f09 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Flint Date: Thu, 5 Sep 2024 17:05:51 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Living in a monastery looking for funding The first commit to this project was on October 31, 2015, almost 9 years ago. It was [268 lines of code](https://github.com/alexflint/go-arg/commit/408290f7c2a968a0de255813e125a9ebb0a9dda6) and it worked pretty well! That was just about three and a half years after Go 1.0 was released. What fun! At that time there was no Go module system, so there was no need for versioned releases. Later, I started releasing official versions from time to time. v1.0.0 was published in December 2018. Over the years I've resisted adding a lot of features, and as a result the library is in pretty good shape. I use it in almost every Go program I write, personally, both servers/daemons and command line tools. It's nice! I live in a Buddhist monastery in Vermont now, not as a monk but as a lay practitioner. I'm working on building a form of Buddhism fit for consumption by AI systems. I love maintaining this little piece of software and I'd love some financial support to do so. I don't have a day job, and I need money to buy firewood, pay for car insurance, and travel to see my folks back home in Australia from time to time. If you use go-arg please consider sponsoring me. It would make a huge difference to me, and it will create a connection between us. I look forward to many long relationships. --- .github/FUNDING.yml | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) create mode 100644 .github/FUNDING.yml diff --git a/.github/FUNDING.yml b/.github/FUNDING.yml new file mode 100644 index 0000000..215c818 --- /dev/null +++ b/.github/FUNDING.yml @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +# These are supported funding model platforms + +github: [alexflint] +custom: ['https://alexflint.io/donate.html']
