I did a talk at the UK GopherCon last month about what my team does, and I only let my laptop fall asleep twice! www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLtq...

There is no thriving #Haskell community without its members of the LGBT community, and on that there cannot be any compromise.

😮 Support for `jj gerrit upload` has been merged, I can’t wait to try it out tomorrow! Thanks matts1 and thoughtpolice for working on this!! github.com/jj-vcs/jj/pu...

Hi folks, it’s survey time! We’d love to learn more about how you use Go and what could be improved. Share your feedback via our annual developer survey at google.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_.... It should take 10 - 20 minutes to complete, and will be open through September 30. Thank you! #golang

“A new experimental Go API for JSON” by Joe Tsai, Daniel Martí, Johan Brandhorst-Satzkorn, Roger Peppe, Chris Hines, and Damien Neil — https://go.dev/blog/jsonv2-exp #golang

Underappreciated part of JJ. It also means you reach competency faster, because you can fearlessly try new commands or new techniques without worrying about destroying work.

“jj undo can now undo multiple operations progressively by calling it repeatedly, whereas previously, running jj undo twice was previously a no-op (it only undid the last change).” 😮 It seems Christmas came early this year. github.com/jj-vcs/jj/re...

The GopherCon EU videos are online. I really enjoyed @misago.org’s about testing/synctest. But there were so many good talks, maybe watch them all? youtu.be/oIC3zhTAOsY #gopherconeu #golang

My GopherCon EU talk about Swiss Table maps is now available! youtu.be/aqtIM5AK9t4

Release Notes v2025.6 tldr: The videos are here! open.substack.com/pub/gopherco...

Heading home from #GopherCon 2025 in NYC. As usual, many people asked how to get one of the amazing Go gopher Hawaiian shirts by Renee French. I've posted the details at github.com/rsc/gophersh.... (I know one person who has made pajama pants with the pattern. Socks might be nice too.) Enjoy!

GopherCon 2025 is a wrap! Thank you very much to the organizers, staff, sponsors, the other speakers, and most importantly everyone who attended. See you next year! #gopherCon #golang

@zombiezen.com great lightning talk!

Ooh, the SIMD WIP stdlib API for #golang is ready for people to poke! From Cherry from a few minutes ago: > As of today, we've landed a preliminary version with a reasonable API coverage. You're welcome to check out the dev.simd branch and try it with your use cases. github.com/golang/go/is... 🚀

“Container-aware GOMAXPROCS” by Michael Pratt and Carlos Amedee — https://go.dev/blog/container-aware-gomaxprocs #golang

Here are the slides for my "What's coming to Go 1.25" talk at #GopherConUK! #golang

my favorite go 1.25 feature is whatever @thepudds.bsky.social lands

The Go 1.25 change I am most excited about is the new synctest package. How I think about it is as a way to deflake tests by simulating an infinitely fast processor (because time doesn’t move until all work is done), and then shorten them by compressing time (because time jumps once it moves).

Go 1.25 is the best release of Go yet!

I'm happy to share that my talk proposal was accepted for GopherCon in NYC! It's on the Go compiler & escape analysis. I hope to chat with you there. Yes, you! (And if we don't know each other yet, just introduce yourself, and then we can chat! 😅) #golang #gophercon

Why is your code allocating memory? How does the Go compiler see the world? Join Go contributor @thepudds.bsky.social for a deep dive into escape analysis—the part of the compiler that decides whether your data stays on the stack or takes the more expensive trip to the heap. 🎟️ www.gophercon.com

Liberals tripping over themselves in their rush to recycle the "let's leave it up to the states!" arguments about gay marriage from 20 years ago. Do these people never learn?

And don't miss the equally amazing part 2: www.datadoghq.com/blog/enginee...

Fantastic new blog post from my colleague Nayef. If you're into Go internals, check it out! www.datadoghq.com/blog/enginee...

We announced the new native Go FIPS 140-3 mode today! FIPS 140, like it or not, is often a requirement, and I was increasingly sad about large deployments replacing the Go crypto packages with non-memory safe cgo bindings. Go is now one of the easiest and most secure ways to build under FIPS 140.

Decided to take a look at jj-vcs which I've heard positive noises about, and in particular see how easy using "jj split" to break a commit in two is. Grabbed the latest binary release and proceeded to clone a local git repo... #jj-vcs #git

🎉 Go 1.25 Release Candidate 2 is released! 🏃‍♂️ Run it in dev! Run it in prod! File bugs! go.dev/issue/new 📡 Announcement: groups.google.com/g/golang-ann... ⬇️ Download: go.dev/dl/#go1.25rc2 #golang

Ever wondered if it’s possible to use DTrace on a Go program? Turns out it’s super easy, barely an inconvenience! gaultier.github.io/blog/an_opti... #golang #dtrace #optimization #debugging

Thanks @commaok.xyz for hosting @michael.express and I to talk about a fun bug in Go’s new Green Tea GC and the tools we used to investigate. sigpod.dev/6

A few ways to build Go programs with a modified compiler/runtime/standard library: nsrip.com/posts/patchr... Overlays in particular are pretty cool IMO

I don't think they post here, but excited to be talking about what the Go Security team does, and why (hopefully) you don't hear much about us, at GopherCon UK in August.

Absolutely incredible turnout for Budapest Pride! So proud of all the organizers, including some old friends, who estimate hundreds of thousands— major embarrassment to Orban

Go 1.25 is coming soon, and the official release notes are pretty dry. So I prepared an interactive version with lots of examples. antonz.org/go-1-25

Some reflections on professional open source work, first blog post in a while. jayconrod.com/posts/130/op...

I'm working on an interactive Go 1.25 tour, but there are so many changes in json/v2 that I decided to cover them in a separate blog post. Plenty of interactive examples ahead! antonz.org/go-json-v2

🧵BREAKING: Today, the FDA approved a new form of PrEP, lenacapavir, a twice-a-year injectable. PrEP, or Pre-exposure prophylaxis, is 99% effective in preventing HIV.

Can't wait to learn about Swiss Tables from @prattmic.com ! @gopherconeu.bsky.social #GopherconEU #golang

1. I spend a lot of time talking about transgender youth healthcare with people who are uncertain about it. A large number of my readers are politically moderate and trying to learn. Today, I laid out my case against bans for my readers who fit that mold. Subscribe to support my journalism.

🎉 Go 1.25 Release Candidate 1 is released! 🏃‍♀️ Run it in dev! Run it in prod! File bugs! go.dev/issue/new 📢 Announcement: groups.google.com/g/golang-ann... 📦 Download: go.dev/dl/#go1.25rc1

What Does It Even Mean To Be “Great” Anyway? I normally don't like writing "Current Events" pieces (and greatly prefer focusing on what SEO grifters like to call "evergreen content"), but I feel this warrants it. Content warning: Violence, death, mentions of political extremism. What Does "Great"…

i wrote a post about a thing we did with go, it was cool and good go.dev/blog/tob-cry...

Very impressive and thorough look at the Go runtime internals.

It's so important to have someone to look up to in your career for inspiration on who you want to be, and where you want to go. Nobody, hands down, was more inspiring to me than working with Ian Lance Taylor on the Go team. He's endlessly open, even-keeled, patient, funny, and massively talented.

Ian Lance Taylor deserves an award for the most patient person in Open Source. He also has an amazing ability to translate the clarity of his thinking into the written word. He has had such impact on the way people create software. I really hope he continues to contribute to Go.

I recently started using jj (h/t @prattmic.com), which is git-compatible version control system. Initially I was skeptical if it's worth the hassle, and there was indeed a learning curve. But man, I had no idea how much unprocessed git PTSD I was suffering from. jj is git trauma therapy ❤️

Please try it... 🙏 Instructions here: github.com/golang/go/is...
