I'm giving an actual Rust university lecture next semester and I can't shake the idea of bringing the obligatory Rust cat ears for the first day.
#RustLang

About two years ago, I was trying to get concurrent output for several LED strips working in #rust on #esp32 using the RMT peripheral. I got it working kind of ok for two outputs, but some switching overhead in embassy made that the limit.
Last week I figured I'd try using the "LCD" output o…

Huh, there are dozens of #YAML parsers in #Rust now.
Quite a handful implement serde, e.g. serde-saphyr.
The original serde_yaml is now unmaintained.
Any suggestions/preferences?
I just filed a PR to the serde website to change the recommendation/suggestion (they list one implement…

suggest using serde-saphyr instead of serde_yaml by orangecms · Pull Request #190 · serde-rs/serde-rs.github.io
Since serde_yaml is no longer maintained, suggest using a different implementation. The serde-saphyr one offers additional features that serde_yaml didn't. Alternatively, there is now also yaml...

Also, zero days (well, minus a lot of days because I've been slacking) since a random #Python package got a new #NIH dependency on another Python package which is actually a "fastest" #RustLang package which cannot be built because the author thinks it a great idea to require a nightly Rust compiler.
…and of course it's full of "unsafe" calls. Because Rust is obviously such a great language for making secure code.

Announcing #Rust 1.97.0
https://blog.rust-lang.org/2026/07/09/Rust-1.97.0/

Debugging #rust in #gdb is a bit weird. I'm pretty familiar with C so it's easy to place the break and watchpoints. I'm trying to find where a particular Error<> enum is raised (because there are a lot of options for the code) but given the way these things are propagated its not really u…

The Bun's #Zig to #Rust rewrite is an advertisement for Anthropic, at the cost of hurting both languages.
It already made a stink for Zig. Now, when this mountain of unstable, auto-converted LGTM'd code is going to have embarrassing bugs, it's going to make a stink for Rust: "see, Ru…

I really like #Rust for making it easy to compose functions and write tests.
My current task involves migrating logic from another language, and the testability makes it super nice to develop.

Hungry for using more consts, but compiler says no? Try 30 to 40 features. An easy usability fix. Take them right from nightly with some allow(incomplete_features).
You will certainly not regret enabling 30 to 40 features.

So if you're wondering how great #RustLang is, let's talk about #mypy. Mypy introduced its own Rust - #Python package, ast-serialize. This package had a deep crate dependency that was broken on PowerPC. The issue was fixed a month ago but everything is still blocked on a deep chain of dependencies being updated and released.

EDIT: yes, I know, it's not Rust, it's Cargo. Because obviously Rust without Cargo makes so much sense for that one project using it.
