I have an ancient M1 pro and I'm considering the new M5 pro.

Would you go for it? πŸ€”

For certain reasons, I'm moving from full-stack Rust to a dedicated backend just in Rust.

Still deciding what I'm gonna build the frontend in though

Finally found time to try this again and managed to get the readings coming out consistently!

But they look weird πŸ˜‚

Here's how to comment multiple lines at once in Helix:

8
x
Ctrl/cmd + c

That's it.

Achievable within 2 secs if you're fast πŸ˜‰

This is your daily reminder that CLI will always be faster than a GUI

Ok I'm still figuring out things here but for some reason the readings only came out in the 1st loop πŸ˜‚

I'm about to write a driver to get the data and readings out from this IMU using only Rust.

Wish me luck πŸ˜‚

So I heard even Meta is investing in Rust.

What's your excuse for not using it?

Linus vibe-coding a hobby app of his own doesn't mean you get to vibe-code stuff into production.

Have some sense of responsibility

Any recommendations?

I'm back from vacation and back to work.

Hopefully I didn't miss much from the tech world πŸ˜‚

Just read it!

Having mixed feelings about this πŸ˜‚

On one hand I'm happy that Rust is picking up steam.

On the other hand they're using a non-deterministic tool to do so hmmm πŸ€”

Haven't been that active here for the past few days as I'm overseas at the moment for a family vacation.

But what's this I'm hearing about Microsoft attempting to use A.I to replace some c++ codebase with Rust?

Sometimes I look back at life and at the decisions I have made.

Some were great but some were horrible.

I have learnt to trust my instincts better now. I believe that my instincts are an accumulation of my experiences.

So I'm gonna trust my instinct and build more things in Rust moving forward πŸ˜†

I saw a guy sitting alone on his chair,

Typing on his mechanical keyboard,

Writing Rust without any A.I,

And building a serial motor driver like a mad man.

That man is me

Prisma Drops Rust for Javascript, Sees Massive Speed Increase
Prisma Drops Rust for Javascript, Sees Massive Speed Increase YouTube video by The Lunduke Journal

All the Rust / #rustlang haters ignoring the context and facts here lol

It's the additional communication bridge/interop between JS and Rust that adds the latency, not the language itself πŸ˜‚

Also the video's title is so wrong and bait-y

I have a Rust / #rustlang problem.

I seem to want to use it for everything.

Someone please stop me πŸ˜‚
