where does one find a comprehensive list of new things for each version? the release notes never seem to know everything that people in here know.

I normally look at the go blog. Their post about 1.18 linked the detailed release notes.

I like the addition of the GOAMD64 environment variable. It allows you to use the capabilities of your CPU.

V2 - Nehalem/Jaguar

V3 - Haswell/Excavator

V4 - AVX512

Agree, this is a good addition.

The release notes usually contain everything.
