My company, @pneumasolutions, is looking for a developer to work for us on a contract basis, to enhance the screen capture and mouse input implementations in our remote desktop product (pneumasolutions.com/products/r…). This project will involve #rust, #webrtc, native Windows and macOS APIs, and integration with an existing Electron app. A more detailed high-level spec is available to qualified candidates. Please email employment@pneumasolutions.com if you're interested and available.

✨ Making Rust binaries smaller by default

Making Rust binaries smaller by default
Have you ever tried to compile a helloworld Rust program in --release mode? If yes, have you seen its binary size? Suffice to say, it’s not exactly small. Or at least it wasn’t small until recently.Kobzol’s blog
#Hugo's slogan of being "The world’s fastest framework for building websites" is a shameless lie.
It has been raised up 3 times on Github with benchmarks showing that other full-featured static site generators like #Zola (#Rust) are faster, sometimes by 10x. Each time, the issue is closed and locked.
I migrated a couple of websites from Hugo to Zola and won't look back.
Feel free to ping me if you need any help with Zola 🥰

I came across a blog from a 2 years ago that compared different implementations of dot product. It had a couple interesting points. The cost of functional programming in #Swift was huge (31x on M1 and 198x on x86). I did an equivalent test in #Rust and the cost was 1x (on M2). That lets programmers use the high level abstractions without dreading the performance costs.

left.iter().zip(right.iter())
.map(|(&l, &r)| l * r )
.sum::<f64>()

Last week I presented my paper at SecDev on the impact #Rust has vs. #C++ on the probability of a vulnerability being introduced by a first-time contributor to a project—and therefore, how easy it is for newbies to get contributions merged. The full paper is available here:
cypherpunks.ca/~iang/pubs/grad…
but the tl;dr is: Rust significantly lowered the number of vulnerabilities introduced, especially from new contributors, and increased the quantity of new contributors to projects.

Did you know that a lot of things in #Rust directly implement the `Ord` trait?
For example `Option<T>` where T: Ord
doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/e…
So you can do:
assert_eq(max(Some(0), Some(1)), Some(1))
assert_eq(max(Some(0), None), Some(0))
assert_eq(min(Some(0), None), None)
There are a lot of other things that implement `Ord`:

Oort seems like a pretty fun Rust programming game. The idea is that you get to program ships to engage in space combat. Similar to other games such as Space Traders.
The idea is pretty cool, but it uses a web editor to input the code and it is not accessible, so I can't use it. Pity.

I'm looking for a new job, or contract work, for the first time in a while - boosts appreciated!
I'm a polyglot programmer, with a wide range of experience behind me, from developing firmware that runs on 8-bit AVR, to highly distributed systems across hundreds of nodes, I covered pretty much the whole landscape.
I had my fair share of Ops experience too, and worked in (technical) Customer Service aswell.
I speak many languages (#C, #Rust, #Lua, #Python, #JavaScript, some #Go among them), but I pride myself in being able to pick up a new language at a decent level between signing a contract and starting on the job.
I'm a #Linux guy through and through, and have very little experience (or desire) to work with anything else, save maybe for the BSDs. I worked with containers, databases (relational and otherwise); in the cloud and on premises. I can debug, I can mentor, I can teach, and build, and integrate (continuously, even!). I'm not afraid of git rebase, nor of a crowd to speak in front of.
I live in Hungary, and am seeking remote work. I cannot relocate.
If you are someone looking for something like that, or know someone who is, please get in touch. My CV - with contacts - is available here.

What good is a queue you can't call "push" on, or a mutex you can't "lock?"
It turns out that some common API patterns are bug generators in async Rust code. In the 0.3 release series, I've taken a pass over the OS APIs in lilos (my async embedded OS ) and tried to make the whole OS strictly cancel-safe.
As a side effect, I replaced both "push" and "lock" with subtly different operations that are much harder to use incorrectly. Details in my latest post:
