tldr ; githoob/slopc So. Recently, I watched "No Boilerplate"'s video on rust's macros and gave those a try after years of ignoring it: thinking it wouldn't help my productivity that much. nah uh ! felt like discovering your car has heated...
I train self-supervised models on chess game data. My Python pipeline using python-chess took 25 minutes to parse and tokenize 1M games from Lichess PGN dumps. I rewrote it in Rust. It now takes 15 seconds. This post covers the architecture...
Every Fedora user has been there. You're setting up nginx, or configuring a custom app, or mounting a Docker volume — and suddenly everything stops working. You check the logs and you find something like this: type=AVC msg=audit(1612345678....
I needed a fast OpenAI client for a realtime voice agent project. The official Python SDK is great, but I needed Rust for WebSocket audio streaming, edge deployment, and sub-second latency in agentic loops. So I ported it. 500+ commits, 5 d...
diesel-guard is a linter for Postgres migrations. It catches operations that lock tables or cause downtime before they reach production. It ships with 28 built-in checks, but over time, users started asking for custom checks: "Our DBA requi...
My daily laptop has 8GB of RAM. Not a lot by modern standards, but enough — until I open DBeaver. DBeaver at idle: ~400MB. Add a browser, a terminal, maybe a local Docker container running Postgres, and half my RAM is gone before I've writt...
As part of my work at Anthropic, I open sourced two Rust crates that fill a gap in the RPC ecosystem: buffa, a pure-Rust Protocol Buffers implementation with first-class editions support and zero-copy message views, and connect-rust, a Towe...
It started with a freelance project. I was writing a backend service in Rust and needed to validate international phone numbers. Like any Rust developer, I headed to crates.io and pulled the most popular library for the job. Then, I opened...
I wanted to participate in the current AI era, but not just as a user of tools. I wanted to build something. And I thought — what better way to see how Rust as a language can evolve in this space than to build a library for it? That's how m...
Smart contracts have long been the primary method for developing applications in Web3. However, the underlying technology hasn't changed much over the years. The EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) has long been the default option for smart cont...
Rust for Network Programming: Building Robust and Blazing-Fast Network Apps Ever felt like your network applications are a bit… sluggish? Or perhaps you’ve wrestled with the terrifying world of memory safety bugs that seem to creep out of n...
Continuing my journey with Rust, I recently completed a suggested exercise from "The Book": Using a hash map and vectors, create a text interface to allow a user to add employee names to a department in a company. For example, “Add Sally to...
This article is an experiment with Rust with its subsequent compilation in WASM. It was interesting to try these technologies on something more difficult than calculating factorial, so the choice fell on the well-known 2048 game. Game The o...
The original version of this post can be found on my developer blog at https://seanchen1991.github.io/posts/lru-cache/. Note: This post assumes familiarity with traits in Rust. If you aren’t familiar with them, I’d recommend reading more ab...
This article is heavily inspired by an excellent Easy guide to JSON input validation in Rust web services article. It shows how to build a RESTful service using Warp and it's been very helpful. This article will explain how to automate requ...
It was great fun solving last year's Advent of Code using Rust. The problems were all approachable and got me thinking about new algorithms to solve them. A small part of the resulting code ended up in a "utils" crate to be accessible from...
[Photo by Kelly Sikkema on Unsplash, modified (cropped)] This article follows up on a discussion. Please share your experience there, I'd gladly hear about it! Introduction Some months ago I was surveying a little the state of GUI in Rust....
In this tutorial, I will be teaching you how to fetch a Web API asynchronously in Rust. This tutorial is for developers who know the basics of Rust, have Rust installed, and want to learn about asynchronous programming in Rust. If you don't...
Cover image created by me using Ferris the Crab, the Rust logo, and the FastAPI logo. After investigating a few more options, I've finally decided on a framework to use. Here's how I got there, step by step. rweb As planned, I started with...
Are you learning Rust and looking for ways to get some hands-on practice with concrete examples? A good approach might be to try and integrate Rust with external systems. Why not try to use it with Redis? It is a powerful, versatile databas...
"It’s *enjoyable* to write Rust, which is maybe kind of weird to say, but it’s just the language is fantastic. It’s fun. You feel like a magician..."
