As quantum computing advances, classical encryption will become increasingly vulnerable. Go 1.23 is the first version of the language to introduce some post-quantum encryption features, with more to come.

This talk will start off with a very light overview of quantum computing. We will cover what it is, and check in on the current state of the art, as well as why this is relevant to encryption. We will take a look at hardware and software available for developers to use quantum computers right now, and why the store-now-decrypt-later threat model makes this the right time to begin introducing post-quantum encryption in Go.

Post-quantum encryption is being introduced to Go 1.23, starting with a Key Encapsulation Mechanism for use with TLS. It is highly likely new hashing algorithms and other features will be rolled out slowly in forthcoming versions. Join us for a mercifully lightweight introduction to quantum computing, a discussion of the new features, and how to use them - and let's go quantum!

Let's Go Quantum - Sam Burns

Some rabbit holes are so far off the beaten track that when you find them they're essentially irresistible. This is one of those rabbit holes. Go is a pragmatic language with good tooling that's quick to learn and well suited to writing concurrent and network aware programs. It's design is generally conservative and so is its community, only gaining Generics a decade after release. It doesn't seem like fertile ground for Functional Programming.

And yet...Go has functions. Not pure functions admittedly, but certainly first class functions with closures. That opens up some possibilities if we don't mind cutting some corners.

Join me for a friendly introduction to functions in Go. There will be a couple of simple problems to illustrate the ideas we’ll be covering, plenty of code you can study later, and a few thought-provoking examples which may permanently change the way you think about Go.

An Introduction to Functional Programming in Go - Eleanor McHugh, Innovative Identity Solutions

Both sorting and merging efficiently can be hard problems. Merging ordered sequences is a little bit easier, but still hard. Thankfully many hard problems in computer science have been well-studied. A good strategy for k-way merging is called Tournament Tree, or Loser Tree. Go didn’t have an implementation of that, so I made one.

In this talk, we will look at
- Fundamentals and problems of k-way merges
- How Go generics enable an efficient implementation
- How profiling and benchmarks were used to tune the implementation and interface
