Serialization

This article explores the concepts of serialization and deserialization in programming. The author shares a personal mnemonic to distinguish between the two processes, explaining serialization as storing an in-memory object (like a Go struct) into a flat format such as JSON. It uses analogies from Wikipedia and Star Trek to describe converting complex data into a transmittable bit stream and reconstructing it later.
