This is what I was looking for. Thanks Steve

I’m looking for something that can help set up an IRL rust community for success and make it inclusive to other system language people who are curious.
Are there good examples of community standards for a rust community that specifically addresses the all-too-common talking-down to C and other languages?
I heard @steveklabnik.com talk about how the early rust community used to be very good about this on one of the oxide and friends episodes.
So glad to hear this. Any feedback for improvements?
We, at The Working Party, just released a package to parse the doc blocks. We use this package to automatically generate documentation and test our files to make sure every snippet and block has those blocks for type safety and auto completion in the editor #shopify #rust

Hey folks. Looking for an awesome front end dev for the Shopify ecosystem in Australia or New Zealand for full time employment. We have a bunch of things cooking and would love to hear from you.

I’ve written up a tutorial I’ve given to a couple friends and colleges #teaching them #Rust and it’s been a lot of fun.
It’s 4 parts and starts here:

📝 First blog in a long time!
I always like “flow-based” programming, and it’s a very powerful paradigm. LangGraph lets you codify complex workflows as graphs, and also integrates really well with LangChain, if your workflow is LLM-driven.

After 20 years of writing code and 10 years trying to quit, I did the only logical thing:
I built a website to rant about it.
Introducing SegfaultAndCoffee.com — a collection of sarcastic rants, emotional tech debt, and the kind of Rust-powered existential dread you can’t cargo fix.

Best part:
"I couldn't immediately find a way to prove it, so I employed the tried-and-true method of getting someone else to do it for me by posting it to the Code Golf StackExchange."

The movie buff in me and the Rust developer in me approve.

Great article.
> Further, I advocate for Rust developers to document and share their mistakes in the hope that we can all learn from them.
Couldn’t agree more.
This article speaks deeply to what I think the right way is you build a “high performing team/company”. This is how you do it.
I feel seen
If anyone knows if the original author Dan Baker is still online I’d love to chat to him.
Just published BEAST. A recreation of a game I grew up with from 1984. I tried to keep it as close to the original as practical. There is a global Highscore server now too which is cool. Was a lot of fun to write this in #rust and playing it.

Fantastic post and a novel approach to something seemingly unrelated. #rust
Strengths - The three-stage approach (squish immediately, A* pathfinding, push blocks) is well-structured - Good reuse of existing A* implementation - Effective handling of block chains ("blockchains" - nice pun!)
I’m writing the pathfinding for my 2D #CLI #rust game and in there you can move multiple blocks so I added a comment:
// there is a chain of blocks (a blockchain) that can be pushed to squish the player
I think I’m pretty funny. But I just asked Claude to review my code and it came up with this.
They finally got him for Crimes Against Humanity

Folks I’m hiring a principle eng at my company. Web stuff is important and we do a lot of #Shopify stuff but I would LOVE someone with an interest in #rust (either you’re already building it or have an interest in learning it) in Australia or New Zealand.
The work is super exciting.
DMs are open
I really like the default compiler output of VI vine.dev/docs/startin...
Anyone know if there is something like this for #rust? A cargo plugin that shows you interactions (clone, copy, other trait calls) and the memory footprint (heap, stack size)
I have been doing that and I like it. But I’d love to actually make the processor and memory real slow and make myself feel the impact of each allocation :)
I’m re-building a couple 90s ASCII games in #rust right now and would love to dig into those old source codes to see how they dealt with the little memory they had.
Right now the old game called Beast from Dan Baker, Alan Brown, Mark Hamilton and Derrick Shadel
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beast_(...
The 90s were a golden age for efficient binaries—hardware constraints forced developers to optimize. Now, we ship layers of abstractions on top of each other.
Lately, I find myself wanting a self-imposed performance limiter, just to build leaner, more efficient software. Even for desktop apps.
This is an interesting read about the Fish shell team's experience porting fish from C++ to Rust. There's some good, some bad, but an improvement in the end.
It's also interesting to see them highlight using Rust will (hopefully) encourage more contributors
