Go 1.27 Ships Generic Methods & Post-Quantum Crypto & GitHub Stacked PRs Go Free & Next.js 15 Enters Maintenance

Go 1.27 arrives with generic methods, post-quantum cryptography, and a rewritten JSON engine; GitHub makes stacked pull requests free for all repos; Next.js 15 transitions to maintenance LTS.

Languages & Runtimes

Go 1.27 brings generic methods, a post-quantum cryptography package (crypto/mlkem768), a rewritten JSON engine, and a standard-library UUID package. The compiler now generates size-specialized memory allocation routines, cutting small allocation costs (under 80 bytes) by up to 30%, with ~1% overall real-world gains at the cost of 60 KB extra binary size. Generic methods still cannot be used in interface declarations. Read more
