Oh, and you can ensure that one constant is larger than another: https://play.golang.org/p/3nCyCuM_D_b

HA! I felt that there must be some way to check arbitrary boolean conditions at compile-time, and it finally dawned on me: duplicate map initializers! https://play.golang.org/p/n8NJyx4yDAR It ain't pretty, but you can use this to assert any condition involving values known at compile-time!

(In other words, both of the previous tricks I posted can be expressed in terms of this one -- it's a generalized form that can check any boolean expression.)
