Go 1.27 lands with generic methods, JetBrains ready on day one

Go 1.27 is out, and JetBrains walks through the release notes: generic methods, promoted field names in struct composite literals, and improved function type inference are the headline language changes. A separate write-up on generic methods drills into why they live at the method level and why interfaces still can't declare them, which is the detail most people will actually trip over. Elsewhere, a salary analysis of US job postings claims Go carries the highest premium of any language surveyed, which will either flatter or embarrass you depending on your last standup.
