RustConf 2023 - Extending Rust's Effect System

I mistyped cago instead of cargo and now I want to either unlearn Spanish or unsee my typo. That's a worse typo than both gst-insect-1.0 instead of gst-inspect-1.0, and gst-lunch-1.0 instead of gst-launch-1.0.

Rust web frameworks have subpar error reporting

None of the major Rust web frameworks have a great error reporting story. We try to implement robust error logging with both axum and Actix Web and then compare the results with Pavex, an upcoming Rust web framework.

My reaction when I discover a meson.build script running "cargo build" in the repository of the first example program I opened from the ones listed on the gtk-rs documentation page.

Is this common in the rust world when interacting with primarily C based libraries?

#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 🥰

A while back I posted to announce we were enabling the use of #rust as a development language within @thunderbird

Pleased to say that we've now landed support, and as of today it's possible to write new libraries and xpcom components using #rustlang, as part of the libxul build!

Is it true, that one of the major goals in the coming period is to change the code base to #rustlang?

Or did I misread something a while ago?

JetBrains has just published the results for their yearly #rustlang developer survey.

There's a lot of interesting data.
A data point some might find surprising: more than a third of Rust developers are using Rust for web development!

An exciting space to be in right now.

The full survey results can be found on https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/devecosystem-2023/rust/ including comments from me, Tim and Florian.

A while back I mentioned I was working on #rustlang support for @thunderbird - well, that work is now coming to a head.

Patches in flight for mozilla-central and comm-central that, if merged, will allow us to build Rust-based components in Thunderbird!

Learn Rust

A language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

^{www.rust-lang.org}

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.

Did you know that a lot of things in #Rust directly implement the `Ord` trait?

For example `Option<T>` where T: Ord

https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html#impl-Ord-for-Option%3CT%3E

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`:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/cmp/trait.Ord.html#implementors

#RustLang #RustTips #RustTip

In #Rustlang you can return std::process::ExitCode from main().

It's better than calling std::process::exit(), because it allows the program to run destructors, which may be needed to flush pending I/O or print buffered logs.

QT orhunp_: 🦀 #rustlang quiz

what is the output of this program?

🦀 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.
