👀 Observability without touching the code? At #GoLab2026, Kemal Akkyoun will explore how to instrument Go applications without changing a single line, comparing the trade-offs between overhead, stability, and security. Zero-touch observability is getting real. golab.io/talks/how-to...

🧪 Your tests pass. Your coverage looks great. But are your tests actually catching bugs? Takuma Shibuya will introduce mutation testing in Go: a way to challenge your test suite and reveal the weaknesses that coverage alone can hide. Because 100% coverage doesn't always mean 100% confidence.

🛠️ Great developer tools don't happen by accident. At #GoLab2026, Mark Sujew explores why Go has become a powerful platform for building compilers, language servers, and large-scale developer tooling.

🍃 Garbage collection is one of Go's most important systems—and one of its least understood. At #GoLab2026, Alex Rios takes a deep dive into Green Tea GC, the new garbage collector design that rethinks how memory is scanned and managed.

GoLab has always been possible thanks to our AMAZING sponsors. They supported us from the beginning and followed us in our progress through the years. We are extremely delighted to announce Google's sponsorship again: would you like to join them?

📊 Benchmarks tell you what happened. But how do you decide what to change? Marija Aleksić will show how the Taguchi Method can bring structured experimentation to Go performance tuning.

🐧 What if your Go application could see inside the Linux kernel? At #GoLab2026, Alexandre Cabral will introduce eBPF and show how Go can be used to build powerful observability and security tools with near-zero overhead.

🧩 Five years after generics arrived in Go, what changed? At #GoLab2026, Roberto Clapis explores the real-world impact of generics: iterators, type-safe testing, RPC libraries without code generation, and much more. A deep dive into what modern Go can do today. golab.io/talks/generi...

⚙️ Fast code isn't an accident. If you want to write high-performance Go, you need to understand what happens beneath the language: memory allocations, stack vs heap, and goroutine scheduling. Jesús Espino will take you inside the Go runtime and show how to build real mechanical sympathy.

🌐 Sometimes you don't need someone else's proxy server. You need your own. At #GoLab2026, Erik Pellizzon will show how to build a custom HTTP/HTTPS proxy in Go with GoProxy, integrate it with your applications, and extend it to fit your needs. Your traffic. Your rules. golab.io/talks/create...

📈 Your Go service is running. Until it isn't. Latency spikes. CPU usage climbs. Memory behaves strangely. Alexandre Daubois will show how to turn a Go application from a black box into a system you can actually understand, monitor, and troubleshoot in production. golab.io/talks/make-y...

🔐 Privacy, age verification, compliance, personal data.. Modern applications are expected to do more than ever but developers are rarely given a roadmap. Eleanor McHugh will show how Go can help you build systems that know much, say little, and handle Personally Identifiable Information responsibly
