#RustLang’s
I got my annual #AdventOfCode reminder that #RustLang’s remainder operator isn’t modulo and that you need i64.rem_euclid. doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitiv...
i64 - Rust
The 64-bit signed integer type.

If "SecureByDesign" becomes standard, we could see a drastic reduction in cyberattacks, fostering trust in tech. RustLang's robust safety could revolutionize software quality. #futurism

I wish there was a #javascript / #Typescript package manager that behaved more like #RustLang's cargo. Specifically, in a workspace of many inter-dependent packages, I only want to fetch and build packages that the package I am working on depends on, as well as automatically rebuild workspace […]

Both of these options are useful in different situations: #rustlang's is more flexible, but can use more memory, since the pointers are twice as wide. A vector of trait objects in Rust is double the size of a vector of polymorphic objects in #cpp.
October 20, 2025 at 2:54 PM
With #rustlang's traits, they're implemented as a "fat" pointer: a (pointer to vtable, pointer to data), whereas a pointer to a polymorphic object in #cpp is a thin pointer, and then the object itself contains the pointer to the vtable, with the data following (as I just quoted).

i think rustlang’s .unwrap() would be used much less if it was called .crash_maybe();

Correction: unsafe DOES undermine #rustlang's guarantee's if you your program looks like this

main() {
unsafe {
}

great example of #rustlang’s versatility! Yes, could in theory have been done with #javascript but wouldn’t have been good then 🤷
🌊  Kisters provides real-time flood warnings—but traffic spikes made scaling costly. We helped them build a Rust-based system using @pola.rs to process data efficiently across servers, edge, and browsers (WASM)—keeping performance high and costs low.

What if #rustlang's HTTP reqwest library were more modular?

Still extremely easy to use, but with the ability to modify its layers more. Such as pools, redirects, retries, proxies, compression, load balancing.

What if we made each of those pieces separable?

reqwest came out 8 years ago. It was meant to be a higher-level HTTP client, with batteries and opinions included. And it continues to fulfill that role very...

#rustlang's mascot should not be the crab. that should be linux, because it only ever moves sideways, never forward.
rust's mascot should be some other damn thing. i guess foxes are already taken
capybaras are cool.
the humble field mouse.
prairie dog! that would be good. i love prairie dogs

@eblu its javascript so its not amazing but it wont take up like 200gb of ram and explode shit unless you are running like a real ass server

what you should keep in mind though is that the node_modules folder will take up fucking _gigabytes_ if you use any library ever made (rustlang's cargo […]

And that was a quite long explanation of #rustlang's newtype pattern! 🦀🎉

As the pattern itself is very easy to implement, I decided to focus the thread more on the motivation and how/why it's useful.

Hope it helped you learn 1% more Rust today, follow me for more threads like this 🦋 🦀

I worked on the WorldGrower port. Most of the last two days have been messing around with #rustlang's generics and trait to do overloading so not much to show for it.

WebGPU support landed in Bevyengine, so Iade a short video explaining what that means.

Rustlang's Wgpu is an amazing crate for GPU programming on the web and native platforms.

https://youtu.be/O1S7WWJ0B9U
WebGPU lands in Bevy 0.11
Bevy officially supports WebGPU as a target, and Chrome has support in the stable 113 release as well. We can officially build games with WebGPU on the web! * Bevy + WebGPU News: https://bevyengine.org/news/bevy-webgpu/ * WebGPU Pull Request: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8336 * Bevy WebGPU examples: https://bevyengine.org/examples-webgpu/ * wgpu: https://wgpu.rs/ * \

The Trojan Source vuln affords us an opportunity to see how different languages, environments, and communities deal with disclosure -- and I think @rustlang's strong, positive, transparent response very much reflects the community's shared values!

Dependency mgmt. is hard:
Java's Maven/Gradle/Ivy -> Too complex
@rustlang's Cargo -> Non-nightly lacks offline mode
@golang modules -> Getting there
Python's PIP -> Clashes w/ system package manager
C++ -> Deps need to be in expected places, always.
