TokioConf T-Shirt

We are 3 weeks out from the first @tokioconf.com. Spoiler: This is the t-shirt! I just saw the design and had to share it. It is so exciting to see it all come together. You still have time to get tickets, but not much time! tokioconf.com.

oh no, now rustbot will spam rustlang/futures-rs PRs?

empathy > outrage

A thought after noodling about the view types idea for #rustlang:

Would a clippy lint for too many fields in a struct be a good idea? It's generally been true in my experience, at least.

Oh hi Past Me:

// TODO: be smarter about this

Yea... Maybe Future Me will finally be smarter someday.

We don’t want cost to be a blocker to attend TokioConf.

If you build with Tokio, we want you there.

For every full-price ticket purchased before the end of March, we’ll add another Community Access ticket so someone else in the community can attend.

"I made this" meme, where AI make something, and the human thinks they made it instead.

Humans be like: "I did this".

That is, combining novices with experts tends to make better products than experts can alone.

Just read: "Junior[s] have always been useless."

Hm. I've found Conway (1968) to be true instead:

> We should take particular note of the fact that the quantum jumps in compiler design progress were associated with new groups of people on territory previously trampled chiefly by [experts].

Finally finished my "2025 in review" post. They always take longer than I think.

But it's always so valuable to reflect, follow the story, and extract the lessons.

Remove cmake dependency for Windows · Issue #828 · aws/aws-lc-rs Problem: I am interested in building and contributing to projects like Deno, which depends on aws-lc-rs. However, it seems like aws-lc-rs has a dependency on cmake for Windows builds. The nasm depe...

I get questions on reddit and github about why suddenly it's so much harder to build reqwest, and it makes me sad.

I've pointed people at github.com/aws/aws-lc-r...

Disabled optional weak dependencies end up in `Cargo.lock` · Issue #10801 · rust-lang/cargo Problem Lets say I have two crates, with these contents of Cargo.toml. The Rust code does not matter here. # foo/Cargo.toml [dependencies] serde = {version = "1.0.133", optional = true, default-fea...

It looks like it might be the Cargo.lock as an optional feature of some dependencies, cargo can't not include optional weak dependencies currently :(

yea i wouldn't actually maintain this. probably easier to fix aws-lc, or fund an even better provider.

i'm just flailing with embarrassment for windows users trying to upgrade reqwest

I'm imagining a native-rustls crate, which uses rustls on unix, and schannel on windows, and the user doesn't have to care, like native-tls.

rustls is definitely much better, and aws-lc-rs is likely a good idea

but i'm frustated at how poor the experience is for windows users

Still appreciate any experience reports!

Assuming nothing is terribly wrong, the hope is to release for real next week.

Just published a new #rustlang reqwest release candidate: v0.13.0-rc.1.

This has some breaking changes, the biggest was switching to rustls by default.

I'd appreciate if you gave it a spin 🙏
