The sudo-rs (safety-oriented and memory-safe implementation of sudo and su in #rustlang) underwent an 🔍audit by ROSecurity (radicallyopensecurity.com/) . You can read about the findings and what its changed over on our blog 👉
Berlin based technology consultancy specialising in the Rust programming language. We offer development, implementation, training and long-term support.
En estos días fríos y un poco depresivos me ha dado por aprender #rust #rustlang y me está encantando, no solo por el lenguaje en sí, sino por los maravillosos recursos oficiales de aprendizaje que tienen. Los tres que tienen en su web son muy, muy buenos.
You know how it's hard to learn something you can't see the point of?
I think this is why senior developers, particularly, flock to Rust. We've been in the trenches, we've been paged at 4am, we've debugged the same missing semicolon or bad indentation errors a thousand times.
You tell me that with just a bit more syntax, Rust can fix my PTSD? I say SIGN ME UP! 🎉
A junior developer, the sweet summer child, only wants things to be easy NOW.
#RustLang isn't optimised for easy NOW. It's optimised for easy FOREVER.

We've discussed the name squatting situation in our team meetings over the past weeks and concluded that it might be time for a crates.io policy update
ref #4914
r? @calebcartwright
Implements let-else formatting based on the rules outlined in rust-lang/rust#107312. The examples listed in the style guide are included as simple test cases to valida...
🦀 I wrote a proposal for an #[export] attribute in #rustlang to allow for *dynamic* linking between Rust crates, without losing memory safety at the linker boundary.
This will make other ABI work aimed at Rust FFI directly usable between Rust crates as well.
Tl'dr #rustlang is a great collaboration opportunity for @gnome and @kde.
A long long time ago, #freedesktop initiative was created for precisely this goal. While in many ways it was a success story (especially in terms of establishing standards), it came short in one specific aspect: code collaboration.
Most freedesktop (all?) projects were and are almost exclusively developed and maintained by GNOME folks. That's not very surprising, given that C (being that lowest common denominator) had to be the programming language of choice. Just like most GNOME folks wouldn't want to touch C++, KDE folks don't particularly enjoy coding in C either. I know both have their reasons and the point here is not to play the blame game here.
There is not much point in dwelling in the past here but if we decide to write all future infrastructure/non-UI projects (that would have otherwise been written in C or C++) in Rust, there's a great potential for collaboration, I believe.
Talk is cheap, you could say and I agree. Hence why I've taken some steps in this direction already: github.com/dbus2/
Microsoft is rewriting parts of GDI in Rust, as evidenced by a new file called "win32kbase_rs.sys" which contains a complete reimplementation of the REGION type in rust, and a vive ID called "Rust_GDI_REGION".
Over the Easter holidays I experimented a bit with building Rust code with meson instead of cargo.
Specifically I tried building a GStreamer plugin with a few dozen Rust dependencies, but the same applies in a similar way to GTK/GNOME applications or literally anything else.
I would put myself into the third group. I really like the general idea behind Rust, want to apply it in production, but still, use all kinds of tools other than Rust. The first category would not…
Low-level Concurrency in Practice. This practical book helps Rust programmers of all levels gain a clear understanding of low-level concurrency. You'll learn everything about atomics and …
A high-level framework for ActivityPub federation in Rust. The goal is to encapsulate all basic functionality, so that developers can easily use the protocol without any prior knowledge.

Just discovered that there is a "voldemort case" in a Rust RFC. It's when you have a private type in a public API. You can reach the type but can't name it.
Anyone able to help advise me on how to write serde binds for scim? I feel like im doing it a really bad way right now and would love some #rustlang advice. github.com/kanidm/scim/blob/ma…
#rustlang peeps, how do you distinguish between recoverable errors and fatal ones that should exit the call chain as quickly as possible? I know about the nested Result from sled.rs/errors but am wondering about other patterns.
Watch Philip's talk at #FOSDEM, where he covers the API and prototypes for 'connectbyname', a library function that takes as input a DNS name and returns a TLS connection, as well as a new EDNS(0) option called Proxy Control option that allows stub resolvers to send requirements to a local proxy.
We're developing an #API in #rustlang that can internally use asynchronous #DNS lookups, implement Happy Eyeballs, support #DANE, SVCB/HTTPS, encrypted client hello, etc.
✨ GStreamer Rust bindings 0.20 and Rust plugins 0.10 release is out
This release features the addition of a few convenience APIs, the addition of bindings for some minor APIs and a lot of internal changes to improve performance and code generation.
ICYMI 👉 Over the course of the last decade, #Rustlang has emerged as a new programming language for writing safe low-level code. In the first of a series, @gfxstrand explores using Rust to write Mesa #Vulkan drivers: col.la/ervd1 #OpenSource @rustlang

In today's video, I have some strange recommendations on how to learn #RustLang!
