I was looking for an alternative to classic shell scripts, so I timed a Hello World program in different languages for fun. I thought you might want to know:

1 ms - #Bash
1 ms - #Perl
12 ms - #Python
33 ms - #Go (shebang calling `go run`)
38 ms - #C (shebang compiling to temporary file)
61 ms - #Rust (shebang compiling to temporary file)

Needless to say that this is a highly unfair and silly comparison. It's still interesting, though.

Time to leave Mastodon?

In my very first post on Mastodon, I said that I am not into social media:
https://fosstodon.org/@mo8it/109384154924739934

But I wanted to give Mastodon a try since it is foss.

I had a wonderful time here. But at some point, I found it very frustrating how much non-RustLang content is on the #Rust hashtag. I tried to push the usage of the #RustLang hashtag but the campaign failed.

There is also an increased amount of bots and annoying Lemmy links.

deno-ast has a tagged version that don't compile, which is used by rustyscript in one of it's default features.

How the fuck do you let this happen ???

I don't necessarily blame rustyscript here since it merely use deno and it's easy to let this kind of bug slide into your project...

But deno? Hello ? Why are you tagging code that don't compile ???

One thing I will say about Rust, is that simply learning it has made me a better programmer. Similar to how a static-typed language teaches its users concepts about types, (which you may take for granted if you learned programming with Java and have never met a python developer,) Rust has taught me a lot of concepts related to memory safety and concurrency simply from using it to write software.

Just added new methods in the proc-macro library on the Literal type:

• str_value

• byte_str_value

Hopefully it should help to unescape literals when manipulating proc-macro tokens. No need to do it in external crates anymore.

I practiced some async Rust code today with Tokio. The idea was to download 10 images using async functions and have graceful shutdown, cancellation and timeout.

I tried using tokio select!, channels and my Go knowledge but it's much harder to do what I want than I anticipated.

Sigh, I think I might have to switch away from #VisusalStudioCode. Seems the only stuff they work on is #AI, to the detriment of everything else.

Shall I move back to #vim? Or rather #neovim. Do I still have the patience to configure that just the way I like it?
I could also try out that newfangled #zed editor that is getting all the hype these days.

One must-have feature is it having good vim keybindings though, I'm lost without them.

Due to a misbehaving crawler taking down docs.rs three times, we now added rate limiting.

This shouldn't impact any normal user, we're happy to talk if this affects you.

Officially we follow the crates.io data policy, so crawlers should be limited to 1 request per second. Until now we didn't validate / limit that and relied on the sanity of the crawlers.

my final project as part of my tenure at Microsoft, aside from that NPM patch (lol), is this lil' guy: https://github.com/microsoft/libsyncrpc

Just a small, but v v fast IPC lib that lets you make synchronous calls to a child process from node, while the child can execute callbacks from you before you return.

I optimized the everloving shit out of this thing, and it ended up being fast enough that the #TypeScript team will be able to use it for the thing that will let you use the Go typescript compiler from JS: you'll just be calling out directly to a Go child.

Package Manager for Markdown

I'm working on a project that is intended to encourage folk to make markdown text files which can be bundled together in different bundles of text files using a package manager.

Question for coders; Which package manager would you suggest I use?

Main criterias (in order) are:

1. Easy for someone with basic command line skills to edit the file and update version numbers and add additional packages.

2. All being equal, more commonly and easy to setup is preferred.

Alright!

I just released a first functional version of a new crate:

🔧 test-dsl at 0.1.0

🦀 https://github.com/TheNeikos/test-dsl/

To paraphrase the readme: test-dsl allows you to easily author tests by decoupling between the 'test harness', 'verbs' and 'conditions'.

It's role in your testing infra would be as boilerplate reduction, so that you can focus on just writing tests around the behaviour of your system. I'm using this pattern for example in a client-server context. So I have verbs like start_server 1, start_client 2, connect_client 2 1 etc...

Of course the meaning of these verbs is highly project-specific.

If a verb does fail, either by panicking or returning an error, you get a nice error output telling you exactly which file and which verb caused the error. Allowing you to more easily pin-point directly what went wrong, rather than potentially searching through a log.

It works great together with datatest-stable from the nextest project, but it works just as fine standalone.

It uses #KDL as the language to write your testcases in, so its fairly nice to read.

It's still missing more comprehensive documentation, but as a prototype it should work just fine!

It actually sprung out from having used this pattern a few times, and I didn't want to re-write the boilerplate around it, and maybe re-use some code between projects.

An underappreciated feature of #rust is that Rust code found in the wild is very much likely to work and is of good quality. The crate doesn't have to be super mature!

My experience with #rust code in the wild is much much better than JS or python code which is not suprising if you think about it. Programmers coding in
"hard" languages generally write better code? Perhaps same thing is with #Haskell and #TexLatex ?

When I first learned #GoLang #Go I remember not being happy about the lack of exceptions and always checking the error returns. I never got over it. I’m not a Go user and don’t really know it currently. But now I am a #RustLang #Rust user and learner. Rust works in a very similar way. Yes, I was skeptical at first (and said so here) but now I’m okay with it. Options and Results make sense.

Maybe I just didn’t give Go a fair shake?

Imagine if every time you checked a #Rust Result for an error, you did that by making a cute kitty sound

Currently the app does not hit the MVP stage, so there is a lot of work to do to reach it.

@pcalcado awesome read! Btw, I had a super weird thing happen to me when I was between founder jobs: I interviewed to a cryptographic R&D company and at the final round they asked me to implement tetris in 40 minutes.

After the interview I looked up smallest tetris implementation in #Rust and it's 160 lines without data modelling. So I was expected to write 4 loc / minute while solving the problem and telling them what was I thinking about. 🤔

Clearly impossible! Told them "I'm not a competitive programmer" and made a grimace when I heard the question. Maybe I should have told them that I won't be doing this in that amount of time? Idk...

I got a rejection saying that I'm not technically proficient enough, but I have a very strong feeling that it was a test of "attitude, not skill".

What do you think about adversarial hiring tricks like this? Do you think if I would have refused, they would have given me a sub task? Does the company just suck and I dodged a bullet? 🤔

I'm going to make make Rust my first AI-only language. I learned some #rust but have never built anything significant with it BY HAND. I intend to keep it that way, and apply CHOP (CHat Oriented Programming as coined by Steve Yegge) only with anything I produce in Rust.

We had a discussion today about the future of programming languages with LLMs becoming good.

Do we need "AI Native" languages and what would they look like? My intuition would be that Rust is actually is a good fit, for a few reasons:

1. Safety
2. Performance
3. Easy to read, but hard to write. And if the LLM does the writing, that's actually not a problem.
4. Very strongly typed, which I think benefits LLMs a lot because it gives itself a very quick feedback loop — if it compiles, it's probably correct.

I've spent the better part of the day with Claud Code writing a program that otherwise I would probably have hacked in TypeScript or Python. Instead, I had Claude Code generate Rust code and it went really well. The result feels very robust, and it is fast.

Although I don't know Rust intimately, I do assume general programming principles apply like in any other language. I can read the code the LLM writes and to challenge it with general engineering practices. On many occasions have I asked it to write tests, refactor the code, take a completely different implementation approach. I may not know the subtleties of Rust as a language, but I'm not sure that it matters.

And picking a language I can't easily write myself has proven to be a very effective strategy to fight the urge to step in and do it myself.

#Ubuntu is moving away from GNU coreutils to Rust-based uutils coreutils with Ubuntu 25.10. There are two big differences with this move:

1. uutils coreutils is MIT licensed, not GPL.
2. Obviously, it's written in Rust, a memory-safe compiled language, unlike C.

IMO, this is a good move.

#Rust question ----
say I have a coordinate system of signed axes. As I normally use Kotlin, I defaulted to isize for its type:

struct Hex {
    q: isize,
    r: isize
}

Now, I want to store terrain chunks of that coordinate system using the hexagonal array of arrays method, so I defined these structs:

struct HexChunk<T> {
    radius: usize,
    _: Vec<Vec<T>>
}

struct HexMap<T> {
    radius: usize,
    _: HashMap<Hex, HexChunk<T>>
}

Now, here are my questions:

• Is HashMap the best solution here? That's what I'd do in Kotlin, but I don't kow about rust.
• How do I implement Index for HexMap? I need to convert from isize global coordinates to usize chunk coordinates, and I could theoretically just go self.1[index / radius][index.r % radius][index.q % radius]; but radius' type does not work here, as it can be bigger than the didivdend! Is there a non-negative isize or usize/2 construct, or should I just use u8 here?

I found myself agreeing with everything in this post from Steve:

I don't think that the brigade of "Rewrite it in Rust" people is nearly as common or big as all too often claimed, but for if you ever appreciated what either Steve or I ever had to say, and have an impulse to brigade a project on GutHub or social media (even accidentally! If you arrive early you might not realize 2000 people are coming right after you), please don't. It's pointless. It's draining. It can be abusive. And it's counter productive.

@faassen

So I'm coming to terms with #Rust after a career in C and Java. I like Go, I may pursue it in a year or two.

I have always hated the Corporate Standard. The people who enforce it can't do a lick of work in it anyway. I call my teams "the talent" .

The Microsoft team chose Go because it seemed to be the appropriate choice - and good on Microsoft for letting the talent make that choice.

@deno_land

I ditched #javascript for #rust, but deno and wasm are making it hard to resist 😮...

I had many concerns about things **not** provided by #rustlang #rust when I started this journey. I tooted about them. You can look back at my history to see. As I have learned, I have seen what Rust has instead of each missing feature. #til about `catch_unwind` and looked deeper into `Result`s. So now I feel better about Rust not having #Python exceptions.

I still don’t see a replacement for Python’s keyword arguments or default values in function calls. Every time I mention this, people reply that I shouldn’t have so many arguments that I need these things. That’s absolutely not why I want them. I want them because they are better than comments at helping the reader understand what is happening without diving down into the function definition.

I think it is cool that #typescript is being rewritten in a faster language and in my opinion this is the kind of niche where #golang excels. Their reasoning boiling down to Go providing 10x performance for low effort rewrite vs >10x for much more effort in <whatever-language> is what I'd call a pragmatic choice. Not everything needs to be hype-driven development, and I say that as a #rust wannabe.

#Rust famously runs unit tests in parallel. This is usually great, but I have a peculiar situation.

I have a test A, that checks if function A works correctly. I have several other tests B, C, …, that check if functions B, C, … work correctly.

Functions B, C, … call function A. This is a problem because function A could potentially trash the developer's $HOME if it works incorrectly, so it really needs to be tested *first*, and functions B, C, … must not be called if test A fails.

My recent build of a #chorded #keyboard, a clone of Chordite. Work-in-progress firmware in #rust and (still some) C at: https://github.com/akavel/chordite-rust

Planned next steps:
- practicing actually typing on it... (the hardest one);
- tweaking and "improving" the layout and functionalities (a neverending story?) - interested in anyone who might somehow help make some sensible one given the constraints of the device;
- hopefully adding mouse functionality based on a gyroscope module (some "MPU6050" board is on its way) - will it work fine enough?
- maybe one day wireless through BLE?

Once I have the mouse functionality built and added, my main goal is to try and be using it with #XReal One glasses I bought recently.

Thanks @rahix for avr-hal; thanks @PaulStoffregen for #teensy; thanks John W. McKown for creating #Chordite, thanks @rustembedded for helping make Rust on embedded possible; thanks my amazing friend for soldering it for me, and thanks many others for many other things.

OK, I'm getting close to caving and publishing https://github.com/sminez/crimes as an actual crate if I can round out the documentation and test suite...

Things that have changed my mind:
1. https://docs.rs/genawaiter/latest/genawaiter/ is already a thing, using a somewhat similar approach? But it looks like its abandoned and makes use of proc macros. Either way, it looks like there's prior art in this space and I _think_ what I've got is a little neater? Not sure about performance yet though.
2. The more I add QOL methods and helpers to this, the more it feels like an actual nice API(!)
3. Now I _really_ want to use it inside of ad and see what sorts of mischief I can get up to 😈

All that said, I think I'll write a follow up to https://www.sminez.dev/socrates-is-a-state-machine/ first to try and encourage people to take a look at the design and tear me a new one when they find issues in it.

If that goes reasonably well, then please direct your "why have you done this?!" complaints to @oac as he's the one encouraging me 😅

@fasterthanlime not sure if you pay attention to mentions, but given that this was inspired by your recent article I'd like to give you credit (/ hold you partly responsible depending on your point of view!)

Apparently rand 0.9 ripped out the implementations for isize and usize on some platforms. Very unexpected and a pain to deal with for libraries (particularly for macro-generated code).

#Rust #RustLang

The recent issue with matrix signing keys (https://hdev.im/@farcaller/114043928830424018) got me thinking why I don’t like rust (in which conduit is written). #Rust is very hard to reason with at glance.

If you don’t have an LSP at hand, you can only vaguely figure out which types are where. It's pretty much impossible to go from a method call to its implementation by name alone. The code is messy with various symbols and evokes the feelings of dread^W perl.

Compare that with go. The code is arguably full of boilerplate, but it's an easy to read boilerplate. I got asked about kube-controller-manager recently and I just went to k8s sources, found the init loops and reasoned with what KCM does within minutes.

Every time I need to touch the lemmy source code I feel like finding ways to aviod it. Sure rust has its benefits, it's fast and efficient and so hard to just read.

@glyph I wrote some generic code in #Rust to convert multi-GB XML files into Parquet without having to load the entire thing into RAM. Derive macros feel like magic once you get the hang of them.

The definitions of the (nearly 100) data object structures in the XML are now pleasingly boilerplate-free:

#[derive(FromXml, ToArrow)]
struct MyObj {
#[from_xml(element = "my-data")]
data: String,
}

With some cleanup it might even be worth open sourcing, if anyone else has a use for it.

I must say, with the exception of macros, most of #rust is easily understandable when you know #haskell and some #cpp. I'm flying through this.

This is what the #rust book (and I guess most Rust documentation, since the Rust book was generated using the same tool) looks like in #emacs' integrated browser, "eww". A bit concerning when you consider that these are static pages of mostly text-based information - why doesn't it look more accessible?

@jgayfer It also depends on your personality.

I have seen careful and pedantic coders build impressive things with python and js while I tend to make a mess that's impossible to maintain. I also waste many hours debugging.

So for me, a strictly typed language leads to long term productivity. I also take on bigger problems with confidence.

Dear #Rust #RustLang folks: What are a variety of ways to pass down context in a structured matter through your function calls?

Thread-friendly, stack based, extensible/unwinding, even struct-based ideas are all welcome. I can think of a few but I wanna know of any I’m missing!

Think, for example, deciding what stream a logger will write do based on the context it’s called, and being able to override it for subcalls.

#Introduction

Starting a fresh new profile, let's introduce me.

I'm Nicolas from north of France, I like old computers, I have a collection of #amiga, #C64, #amstrad, #atari. I also like #computerhistory and started to code emulators, I made a #teletype, #altair and #Intel8080 emulator, and also a #Z80 then a #trs80 emulator coded in #rust. Currently experimenting with #Zig, and #riscv64 assembly.

Guess which #rust crate is used mostly at work and which one is also used on side projects.

I should learn and use #rust. I could use it for work projects, and it would fit neatly, with being safe, fast, and easily installable/deployable.

But it somehow doesn't "tickle" me. I keep coming back to these (comparatively) more exotic languages like #haskell. Not sure why, but I think it offers more learning experiences, possibly more rigidity?

People will keep using C/C++ until other languages stop pulling shit like this...

People: Rust is a stable language that takes backwards-compatibility very seriously.

Rust: This code compiles on 1.81 and fails to compile on 1.82.

At least Python doesn't pretend to be backwards-compatible when they break things.

#rust newbie questions:

Do you generally try to find existing crates for everything for maximum reuse? When do you resort to (re)writing routines yourself?

How do you assess the trustworthiness of a crate? For example, I check if cargo itself depends on it, must be fairly reliable if it does. Better tips?

For example, in Python I try to stick to the extensive standard library, use pypi dependencies conservatively, and choose them carefully.

@kubikpixel @n0iroh

So far:

- built with #rust
- #p2p file tranfers
- keeps you in your comfy terminal
- no need of opening a browser (unlike pastebin)

Just great!

Sendme
– from @n0iroh

File transfer doesn't need to be complicated. It's like scp without needing to know the IP address. Add some files to sendme, and it will give you a pastable ticket that you can give to anyone who needs your files. Sendme will connect your devices directly & transfer the data without any accounts or configuration.

Howdy #Rust / #RustLang folks!

I'm starting to dip my toe into desktop GUI work again. The last time I tried this, the best option was GTK bindings for Rust. Actually shipping an app doing that was ... an exercise left for the reader. I did eventually get something to work, but it was a big pain.

Nowadays, it looks like we have better options. I've looked at a bunch of different offerings already, which I'll briefly describe below, but is there anything I'm missing?

The clear front runner for me at the moment is Tauri. It has most of the power of the web as a UI, including robust support for accessibility.

Among the other serious contenders I looked at was Iced, which looks pretty promising, but accessibility support (via accesskit) has been on the roadmap for ... a couple years now? Who knows when that will ever be usable.

I'm also aware of Slint. It looks like it's mostly designed for embedded applications though, which mine is very not.

Other options I've seen look like they're not quite ready for primetime yet. Having good accessibility support in the UI system itself seems like a good differentiator between projects I could actually use for this, and projects that are currently in an unserious phase.

What's everyone else's experiences in Rust GUI-land?

The e-mail client meli is getting more rigorous and serious testing!

I have implemented a mock IMAP server from scratch using the wonderful `imap-codec` crate (thanks @duesee ), and a mock JMAP server using only JMAP bindings from meli itself. Hopefully we will be able to re-use this code to test many scenarios where meli must react to server changes and behavior correctly.

Hey all! I'm due for an (re-)introduction: I'm Jack, an engineer in the NYC area from a firmware & cybersecurity background, currently working in something like hardware-software co-design.

Technical work is often with #rust #kicad #python #verilog #c, and in all-too-rare moments stuff like #haskell #forth #agda and #prolog

I've never been much for social media, usually preferring to keep interests local: a better-detailed #introduction to follow as I figure this out 🙂

Rust logging libraries - what are we using? Simple CLI application

I've used simple logger before and maybe env_logger. My more complex stuff has tracing but that seems overkill here.

i've released `zizmor` v1.2.0!

some key changes:

- there's a new `bot-conditions` audit, which can detect spoofable `github.actor` checks!
- precision/accuracy improvements to the `unpinned-uses` and `excessive-permissions` audits!
- bugfixes for the `template-injection` and `artipacked` audits!
- more general bugfixes, including a (hopeful) improvement to the SARIF output behavior and fixes to our parsing of some workflow/expression edge cases

and from a sustainability perspective: many thanks to https://astral.sh/ for being our first logo-level sponsor!

#rust #security #opensource

Spent the last 6 hours trying to get a hello world equivalent gui window with a button on rust under windows.

This task which one might think is simple ended up taking literal hours and still hasn't been achieved because: the tutorials for gtk on windows and rust suggest putting msys2 bin directory on the path. This causes rust to fail to build correctly because it uses the wrong gcc and linkers.
Afterwards I managed it by using the appropriate environment variables.
But then I found out the dynamically linked libarries weren't found. I tried getting a way to copy them but it turned out to be too much work so I just moved the executable to the same dir.
Only to find out that gtk4 has no accessibility on Windows. Not bad accessibility, not accessibility that needs to be turned on. No. Accessibility. At all.
So then I decided to try Qt, which wants me to create an account to get an installer. Absolute no.
Got the 1.5gb sources and trying now to get an off-line installer out of it.

To get a fucking window with a button in it.

I don't think it's unreasonable for me to say this state of affairs is complete bullshit, and that most people with a normal level of motivation would have found plenty of opportunities to have given up. I still might.

(Not using NWG because tying the data to the GUI elements is non-trivial, it seems to require copying a lot and using twice the memory.)

Worked on optimizations with great results; some methods in the time crate are twice as fast!

- Month::length
- is_leap_year
- weeks_in_year
- Date::to_calendar_date
- Date::month

The first two algorithms hadn't been published when I originally wrote the code, The last two I conjured myself using a similar technique.

It took a fair amount of fiddling to get it to optimize just right, as seemingly inconsequential changes had nontrivial impact on speed.

@wraptile I tried bottle, Flask is a POS. The sample code & libs do not work. I now avoid it and use #Deno instead.

When #AppEngine cost more than $10 and required more API changes (data api) I wrote my own static #HTML engine based on #Jeckyl (#Python) and when the compile times blew out re-wrote it in #Rust.

one thing about #Rust that I wish people would emphasize to programmers who are interested in learning it is: you absolutely need an IDE - and need to know how to use its features well - in order to learn Rust

because here’s the thing. for every single variable, argument, return value, etc. in Rust, you have to keep all of the following in mind:

• lifetimes
• mutability
• monads
• references
• ownership
• sometimes trait bounds
• probably even more stuff that I’m not thinking about right now

and in my experience this is an impossible amount of cognitive load, even for very simple programs, unless you have an IDE to help you with it - by E.G. showing you a function’s signature as you’re supplying it with arguments, and giving you inlay type hints to keep track of the nuances of each variable

and because of this huge jump in complexity compared to most languages, that means you have tons of methods that all do almost the same thing, but with some Rust-specific nuances to keep in mind. like consider the difference between .iter(), .iter_mut() and .into_iter(). in most other languages, these would all be the same method, because most other languages don’t have a concept of “returning an immutable value” or “returning an owned value”

but of course an IDE will let you just type .iter and show you every method that has iter in the name, which tells you which options are available to you and helps a lot with considering what you want

also, the Rust compiler is incredibly picky. (which is a good thing! kinda). without an IDE it will feel like rustc is expecting you to keep track of every single detail of every single variable at all times (again, impossible cognitive load) and is just waiting for you to make a mistake. sometimes it’s not even clear what it wants from you

after a while of trying to use Rust without an IDE I ended up creating superstitions around the Rust compiler. “trying to pass information between threads has angered the gods. nothing seems to calm their ire. this will be a single-threaded program to appease them”

but if you get live feedback from your IDE, in real-time as you’re typing your code, it’s much easier to build an intuition around what Rust expects from you and what will make it angry

so yeah don’t try to use Rust if you don’t have an IDE, or you don’t know all of your IDE’s features yet. you will go insane

Reading the #Rust chapter on enums... oh! god. What have you done to that word enum? My Python brain is blown to bits. I am used to counting things with enumerate and maybe define some specific integers with the Enum class. But Rust takes it to a whole different level. Phew...

Why is MSRV a thing? What are the scenarios where someone might stay on an old toolchain and not bump to the latest stable rust? Naively I expected language editions to solve problems that would prevent always using the latest stable.

So someone showed me some screenshots of a testing setup they had with kdl-ts + miette recently and it looked amazing. Semantic, readable, relevant errors on the test site, really nice declarative test definitions, and zero compile time because it’s not just a bunch of proc macros.

Maybe it’s worth making a library for doing that? 🤔

@dansup @vidzy hmm I've been learning #Rust & want to start a project I can list on my resume before applying to Rust jobs.
Was thinking a #Fediverse #GTK / #Libadwaita client would be perfect. Was leaning toward #Lemmy since the backend is also Rust, but the UI for that would be more complex & is daunting for my zero exp w/ UI (outside of React)

#Loops would probably need a lot less UI complexity, so maybe I'll make that instead.

I know that kids these days are happy with their fancy new languages, but the fact is, things are just slower than expected, and we might need to add more power and resources not because of shitty LLMs, but because of compilers which are not designed properly.

Or it’s just bad code.

Initial Release of heretek: Yet Another GDB TUI Frontend 🎊

* **No gdbserver requirements**: Many vendors ship invalid `gdbserver` binaries, this works on remote targets with just `gdb`, `nc`, `cat`, and `mkfifo`.
* **No python requirements**: Many vendors ship `gdb` without python support.
* **Architecture agnostic**: `heretek` only uses information given by `gdb`, no extra code required!

just read this article about #zig and #rust and looked at the code. atm I'm leaning strongly towards zig because it is so much easier to read and so far MUCH easier to learn.

alternatively I'm going down another round of "fine. then I'll look at nothing newer than the mid 80ies"

Excellent article on #fishshell voyage to #rust.

Doing migrations following the #theseus approach is so satisfying. You get to see the results as each part gets swapped. Immediate feedback, but also guidance on how to build. 😎

Been with fish for a decade now. And I can't think of using anything else now. 😅

of these three? go for the strongly typed #rust. No contest IMHO.

Interesting blog post about the 2 year process of rewriting fish-shell in #Rust. Gradually replacing C++ components with Rust versions and using various techniques to maintain interoperability while the rewrite was underway.

The Rust ecosystem for numerical/scientific computing is in a bit of a sorry state.

ndarray, which has a nice user-facing API and seems suitable for arbitrarily large n-dimensional data, is effectively abandoned. Worse still, its linalg library is just a wrapper around OpenBLAS/LAPACK... but the bindings are static and assume the amd64 ABI. It fails to build at all on AArch64 due to type mismatches.

nalgebra is under more active development, is written entirely in Rust, and also has a very nice API. It is less suitable for arbitrarily large data however, and lacks SIMD optimisations for even basic matrix operations like dot product. The maintainers rely on LLVM's auto-vectorisation at -O3, with little interest in adding any explicit SIMD optimisations. It gets worse once you start looking at matrices storing any type other than intrinsic floats. Complex numbers are a little cumbersome to deal with for certain operations.

No one in this domain is going to want to use Rust for anything serious until these fundamentals are in a good place, but it seems like there's no interest in getting these fundamentals into a good place because no one's really using Rust in this domain...

If you aren’t familiar with how computers work under the hood, I recommend to start #LearningRust with Rust in Action, a perfect book for beginners.

It’s a hands-on guide that introduces the #Rust programming language by exploring systems programming concepts and techniques. It goes beyond language syntax to showcase what Rust has to offer in real-world use cases, such as dealing with persistent storage, memory, networking, CPU instructions, and more.

Hey #Rust #RustLang how do you get docs.rs to show the whole "this is only available with feature X" box (and actually display things that aren't in default features)?

EDIT: Thanks all! We're looking good now :)

I am absolutely overjoyed to announce the release of #KDL 2.0.0!! https://kdl.dev

It's a significant overhaul of the language to make it SO MUCH NICER in so many ways.

This is the culmination of over 3 years of work (4 if you count from before 1.0.0), by SCORES of contributors.

https://github.com/kdl-org/kdl/releases/tag/2.0.0

I want to give huge thanks to everyone who supported all of us through this, who jumped in and had some really amazing discussions weighing all sorts of interesting trade-offs.

The end result is absolutely not something any one person could've reasonably come up with.

I hope y'all enjoy it <3

As part of this release, several implementations have already launched with full support for v2.0.0, so you can try it now!

👉 #Rust #RustLang https://github.com/kdl-org/kdl-rs
👉 #C / #CPP / #Python https://github.com/tjol/ckdl
👉 #Elixir https://github.com/IceDragon200/kuddle
👉 #JavaScript / #TypeScript https://github.com/bgotink/kdl
👉 #Python https://github.com/tabatkins/kdlpy

KDL is already used in all sorts of projects, and by various folks as a DSL for their own small hobby things: https://github.com/kdl-org/kdl?tab=readme-ov-file#used-by

There are around 8k .kdl files out on GitHub, which is a lot considering it's usually a config language!

I fully expect this to be the last version of KDL ever released. We really really tried, but I don't think there's anything we can reasonably improve on.

From here on out, the language is in the (stable!) hands of the ecosystem.

Also, we're hoping to have GitHub syntax highlighting support soon!

(Boosts welcome!!)

so yeah this is happening #KDL #Rust #RustLang

The crate is now gonna have v1 and v1-fallback features, which enable parsing v1 docs (using the legacy parser, for now). And there's a KdlDocument::v1_to_v2(s: &str) function now that will convert a v1 doc into v2 syntax in a single call, for folks who want to make it easy for their users to migrate.

I’ve never understood or written #ruby bindings to other languages. But now, I’ve found motivation. The #taffy UI library written in #rust looks amazing, and #stretchable is a #python binding for it. Can anybody recommend books, videos, or other resources to learn the skills I’d need to write Ruby bindings for it?
