In 2024, I added the `Option::as_slice` and `Option::as_mut_slice` methods to libcore. This talk is about what motivated the addition, and looks into the no less than 4 different implementations that made up the methods. It also shows that even without a deep understanding of all compiler internals, it is possible to add changes both to the compiler and standard library.

In this talk, we'll explore the current state of AI development in Rust, highlighting key crates, frameworks, and tools. Covering the essentials from ML and NLP to integrating LLMs and agent-based automation.
In my session, I want to present hotpath and channels-console libraries and explain how they compare to other profiling tools available.
This case study explores how Rust enables a single project to power embedded devices, high-performance client-side web simulators for training, and scientific workflows in Python.
I'll initiate you in the art of 'CAN bus sniffing': Connecting to the central nervous system of a modern car, interpreting the data, and seeing what we can build as enthousiastic amateurs.
For infrastructure engineers, SREs, platform teams, and Rust developers who've felt the pain of configuration drift, failed deployments, and infrastructure code that simply doesn't scale safely.
During this talk we'll build a basic, working async runtime using nothing more than a standard library. The point? To see it's approachable for mere mortals.
