4 years using and championing the #fediverse full time and I've never written a #introductions toot. Well, or I have and can't find it.
I'm a #blind guy from 🇬🇧 with a passion for #technology and #programming, particularly #lowLevel #systemsProgramming in #C, #C++, #Rust, etc.
I've been a huge #freeSoftware / #openSource advocate for the majority of my life. I run #Linux and I love open, #decentralised technologies like #ActivityPub, #Matrix, #bitTorrent etc.
In my view, technology is built to make our lives easier, and in many ways, it isn't these days. It is truly my opinion that the only way #tech can be sustainable is if it's built using #FOSS, and does not give ultimate control to any 1 entity, individual or corporate. If technology is to help the people, it must be built *for* the people.

🥳 A new version of csv-diff has just been released! 🚀
docs.rs/csv-diff/latest/csv_di…
csv-diff is the fastest CSV-diffing library in the world - written in #Rust
It can compare two 1,000,000 rows x 9 columns CSVs in < 600ms!
Note that this is still a beta release and the library itself is still very young.

A year ago I started working on supporting GL Textures in the rusty @GStreamer Paintable @GTK Sink and now its merged 🎉
This should dramatically reduce the CPU usage consumed and allow for zero-copy rendering when used with hardware decoders.

Hey folks,
I'm currently looking for new permanent and remote-only opportunities in Europe.
I'm really willing to get my hands dirty with some Rust. My day job is mostly about TypeScript and NodeJS but I have plenty of projects on my GitHub account you can check github.com/yamafaktory .
Boost really appreciated ❤️ !

Are you comfortable in C but curious about Rust? Have existing tutorials seemed like they don't apply to the sort of low-level work you do?
Learn Rust the Dangerous Way is my unsafe-first introduction to the Rust language -- starting with code with the same gotchas as C, and introducing idiomatic Rust concepts to improve it. It's a few years old now but you might still find it useful. (I keep meaning to update/extend it but life keeps happening!)

You can try and describe Rust syntax but I don’t think you’re going to beat “like trying to read the output of a UART with line noise.”

I'm experimenting with the #libreoffice SDK to write a small #nextcloud app. I'm using the #cpp API because I want to wrap it in an #Rust #HTTP backend.
It is hard to figure out how to use the API and questions on Stackoverflow are hard to align with the #libreoffice examples. For example, stackoverflow.com/q/62769483 does not really help. I guess you need to be familiar with the API before you will understand it.
@libreoffice, do you have any pointers to become more comfortable with the API?

Please take a look at my source file sdlstate.rs.
I'm getting a borrow checker error E0597 on line 39, indicating that tc does not live long enough. However, looking at the sdl2 sources (via its rust-docs), I don't see how my created texture, t, can possibly still refer to tc, which as far as I'm aware, is the only way this error can be generated under current conditions.

Hello new followers! I've been bad at hashtags, which are crucial here for discoverability, so here's some of them.
I try to toot interesting things related to #activism about #ClimateChange / #ClimateCrisis / #EarthBreakdown, from the perspective of #degrowth / #ClimateJustice / #sustainability. I'm one tiny part of #ExtinctionRebellion.
I build #FOSS / #OpenSource / #commons and #SmallTech using #rust and will write more about that soon.
Third, occasionally #philosophy, #anticapitalism.
Heads up: phosh-osk-stub moved out of #phosh's repo and to: gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/phosh-… as it acquired more and more cruft while debugging some (now fixed) touch input related issues in #gtk 4.
Mostly mentioning it here since some distros (such as #debian) used it in the past on architectures that had trouble building #rust to fulfill session dependencies (which is not an issue anymore nowadays) so it can safely be dropped.
