Go (@golang.io) is my new favorite language. Not sure why I slept on it until now. I'm having fun coding again.

Secure Randomness in Go 1.22 - The Go Programming Language
ChaCha8Rand is a new cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator used in Go 1.22.
In Go 1.22 we fixed a common security footgun by replacing the math/rand[/v2] default generator with a new secure one based on ChaCha8.
Details on the Go blog by @swtch.com and me (and full reusable specification in C2SP).

Happy Pi Day, Gophers! 🥧
As we celebrate π's infinite journey, let's not forget about its tastier twin... pie! Embrace the occasional "waistline expansion" with a slice (or two).
In Go, we value all constants and variables - circumferences, diameters, and, yes, even our expanding love for pie!
