Developers spend a lot of time using version control systems to manage their codebases. git is used by over 90% of open source codebases for this task. But that doesn't mean git is perfect. In this talk, Steve will show off jj, a git-compatible version control system that takes lessons learned from both git and mercurial and puts them into an easy to use package.

Opening Keynote - How Rust Makes Oxide Possible

Oxidize Conference
Oxidize 50:18 13256 views

As #rust gets more and more production usage, many of the examples people talk about are fairly high level: things like web applications. While that’s great, isn’t this supposed to be a “systems” programming language? What about more traditionally low level tasks, like firmware, operating systems, and microcontrollers? @oxidecomputercompany is building a new kind of server hardware, and is using Rust to do it. From the root of trust, to the #firmware, to the “totally not a BMC,” up through the host operating system, control plane, and backend of the HTTP API to interact with it all. In this talk, Steve tells tales of using Rust in production for the past five years, building a new system from the hardware up. The Oxidize Conference is the applied Rust conference where developers meet to talk about the software and technology they're building in #Rust. More information about future events and more about the speakers and talks featured at the 2024 conference can be found on the website: https://oxidizeconf.com/ #rustacean #oxidecomputing #servers
