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.
This technical talk examines the most prevalent pain points facing Rust web developers today and explores how the community is addressing them.
We’ll take a deep dive into Rust channels — from synchronous channels to asynchronous channels — to explore how message passing enables reliable concurrent programming.
I'll share a few tricks to help you write cleaner, more powerful declarative macros. You'll also get a sneak peek at the nightly features to see what's coming next macro_rules! world.
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.
