regexp: add iterator forms of matching methods
Read on GitHub We propose to add methods to regexp that allow iterating over matches instead of having to accumulate all the matches into a slice. This is one of a c
Issue #106
regexp gets iterator forms, netip.To6() returns
The regexp package is getting iterator forms of its matching methods, accepted after a long run as one of the stdlib APIs most obviously missing a range-over-func story. On a related note, a rejected netip.Addr.Map() proposal has spawned both a fresh netip.Addr.To6() pitch and a blog post walking through what it would actually take to hack the Go compiler into optimising AddrFrom16(ip.As16()) the way the maintainers suggested. Elsewhere, a reddit thread from someone drowning in 15k lines of AI-generated code added in two days is the kind of discussion that reads less like a question and more like a cry for help.
