We took an internal training initiative, and just made it a public @googlecloud certification.
The Professional Agentic Architect Certification tests you on a legit range of topics: agent dev, evals, security, etc.

@Owl_of_Atena@cradrrat So easy to trigger Rust programmers 😂
Rust is a good language, but C is what you use for optimal performance on bare metal. With great power comes great responsibility.
New article! Type inference and narrowing with reverse arrows: https://t.co/ZC0pVc0ve5
@duboc_guillaume and I explain how Elixir’s approach to type inference and narrowing is built on a few ideas that compose well while outlining the improvements coming with Elixir v1.21!
Who are Go developers in 2026, and how is AI changing their work?
For Go’s 17th birthday, we looked at the Gophers who participated in the JetBrains Developer Ecosystem Survey 2026 and found seasoned engineers, a comeback for the standard library, and AI agents everywhere.
Here’s the State of Go in 2026: https://t.co/vhCL1AuwLp

Dijkstra on testing vs language design:
"For what program structures can we give correctness proofs without undue labor?"
With @elmlang you get:
- no null pointers
- no unhandled exceptions
- no aliasing bugs
- safety from supply chain attacks
AND it's more fun than JS/TS 😅
libghostty 1.0 is here! I started Ghostty ~5yrs ago to work towards this. Today, libghostty is in hundreds of projects used by tens of millions of people. 1.0 marks ABI stability, quality, and an invite for distros to begin packaging. https://t.co/i0FoSZHJT3
Since starting the Ghostty project in 2022, the most common question I've been asked is "why?". Today, I'll answer this by showing the broad industry impact libghostty has already had.
On top of JetBrains and Neovim already mentioned (that alone being over 10 million users):
-KDE developers are experimenting with a Konsole replacement built on it.
- Vercel's Turborepo uses it to render task output in its TUI.
- devenv uses it to drive shells.
- Antithesis used it to fuzz TUI programs and found real bugs in btop and others.
-Ghostel brings it to Emacs.
- ghostty-web is the WASM build with an Xterm.js-compatible API.
- Commercial products like OrbStack embed it.
- And a whole wave of new terminals and "agentic" coding tools, such as herdr and cmux, have been built on it rather than writing yet another emulator.
There are community bindings for Rust, Go, JavaScript, Swift, Python, .NET, Elixir, Dart, Java, and more, and the awesome-libghostty list tracks well over a hundred projects.
More people today use a terminal powered by libghostty than use Ghostty the application, by a very large multiple. And libghostty is having a much larger impact than being "just" a terminal emulator.
I'm excited to see where people take it from here.
hot take: you don't need a software factory, and i don't love the term. it's just marketing
all you need is good software engineering and investing your tokens in the right places. the more deterministic the better (and token efficient)
Prompt of the day is a simple one:
"How do we make this change fully verifiable?"
Makes the agent bend over backwards to verify all its changes. Signing up for real services, clicking through the frontend. Quality goes through the roof.
Go team explains why `encoding/json/v2` was needed, how they implemented it, and what it means for the original `encoding/json` package (spoiler alert: it will remain compatible!).

Goodbye map[string]struct{} 👋
Go's generic set proposal was just accepted. set.Set is still a map underneath, so range just works, but you get Insert, Contains, Union, Difference and more.
It lands first in https://t.co/XiamJpX8Sb

🎙️ We sit down with James Gosling @errcraft, creator of @java at Sun Microsystems, to talk about the early networking friction that drove the need for interconnectedness, the stringent reliability requirements of consumer electronics companies that inspired the Java virtual machine, and the evolution of garbage collectors that allow Java to handle large-scale concurrent memory management.
