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.

☕️ We’re running LATTE again: our ASPLOS workshop about languages/compilers/tools/whatever for hardware design. Submissions are just little 2-pagers, due on January 31. Plenty of time to throw something together! capra.cs.cornell.edu/latte25/

Back in April, @bcantrill.bsky.social and I talked to Andres Freund on the @oxide.computer podcast to discuss the xz fiasco; over on Mastodon I described making the image, and since its starting to be used without attribution, I thought I'd talk about it here... share.transistor.fm/s/e2538f7d
Wanting to see more #golang content here, let me try to get the ball rolling with a developers plus contributors starter pack! go.bsky.app/Hz6nVzr
