Effect has shipped version 4.0, a ground-up rewrite that the maintainers say is faster, lighter on memory, and produces smaller bundles than Effect 3.x. The release also merges previously separate packages into the core effect package, which now has zero runtime dependencies, and unifies versioning across the ecosystem.
JDK 27, the reference implementation of Java 27, has reached General Availability after build 35 passed as the second release candidate with no critical bugs found. The release bundles nine JDK Enhancement Proposals, including G1 as the default garbage collector everywhere, post-quantum hybrid key exchange for TLS 1.3, compact object headers by default, and further previews of structured concurrency and pattern matching features. Oracle's GPL-licensed OpenJDK builds are already available for download, with other vendors expected to follow.
