I've been working through Mastering Distributed Tracing to learn more about (you guessed it) tracing. The book is from 2019, and while I've been assured that its contents are still sufficiently up-to-date, the Go-based code examples are a bit dated; namely, they use dep for dependency management, rather than the new(er) built-in module system. dep seems like a fine tool that had its time, but seeing as I'm used to Go modules, and I don't really want to learn an obsolete tool just for some book exercises, I created a Go module for the exercises and started converting the Gopkg.toml/Gopkg.lock files by hand.
