Just posting the model sheet again for everybody who doesn't have it. Stickers of several poses are at #gophercon

As we enable more ARM64[1] machines in our network, I want to give some technical insight into the process we went through to reach software parity in our multi-architecture environment.

I love the debate around the generics proposal for Go 2.
