I'd like to start adding a 'quote of the week' to TWiR . So far though I've been terrible about taking note of good quotes from the Rust world. And also there is much more going on than I can follow personally. So this thread is to beg for people who see insightful or funny things said about or in r…

Dialog between @matklad and @arielb1 here : Joke that it looks like SoA, ECS, and that we should build compiler like a game engine so that we can rewrite a browser like a game engine. The compiler itself is already an ECS, this is just pushing stuff to the parser too.

Honestly, after more than 25 years of C (and C++), I've become very frustrated with the average C code I seen in the wild. OpenSSL is fairly typical, in a lot of ways. So much C code has buffer overflows, numeric overflows, memory leaks, double frees, undefined behavior, and an an endless number of…

winapi is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist, but that's just peanuts to winapi. When cargo doc was designed, they did not forsee winapi. They did not believe the legends. The w…

Seeing this just after a now-deleted-for-inappropriate-tone example in the discussion around RFC 2308 (which mentioned a 330-variant enum in SPIR-V) made a half-formed draft of the following come to mind: Rust: The Murphy's Law language for programmers tasked with works both subtle and powerful.

Rust has a very high friction coefficient. We call it grip and it lets us drive fearlessly around hard corners very fast. /u/asmx85 https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/7ugm8e/c2_c_with_cleaner_syntax_a_module_system_no/dtkde2s/
