    others with our knowledge and abilities.
  • Audio:

Notes

Many of us have been very blessed with opportunities and support as we learn software. We should go out of our way to share with others in kind. Today, my focus is on teaching, but there are lots of ways to "give back." And I'd love to hear your thoughts and things you're doing in that vein!

  • Date: February 28, 2017
  • Subject: The final pieces of the story for (single-threaded) memory
    management in Rust.
  • Audio:

Notes

Sometimes, we actually do need to copy types. Wouldn't it be nice if Rust
gave us a convenient way to do that when it's convenient, or when the cost
is low enough that the ergonomic tradeoffs are worth it? Well, perhaps
unsurprisingly, it does! The Copy and Clone traits, plus the Cow type,
give us everything we need!

e018: Borrow, AsRef, Deref: my head hurts now

Three traits which are essential for designing good, Rustic APIs.

Notes

Borrow, AsRef, and Deref are a little complicated, but they're
well-worth understanding. Together, they give you tools for dealing with
everything from HashMap and friends to conversions involving smart pointer
types to easily using String and str or Vec and slice together.

Katas---or: learning by doing

  • Date: September 10, 2016
  • Subject: Building (and celebrating) all the little, not-so-glorious
    pieces of the Rust ecosystem.
  • Audio:

Notes

One of the best ways to learn is to pick a small problem you have already internalized, and to do it again but in a new language or in a new way in a language you already know.

It doesn't have to be sexy

  • Date: August 20, 2016
  • Subject: Building (and celebrating) all the little, not-so-glorious
    pieces of the Rust ecosystem.
  • Audio:

Notes

We love the Rust compiler team. But there's more to the Rust community, and more required for Rust to be as great as it can be, than just the language itself. We need to celebrate other libraries, and even the small ones, just as much (and maybe more) than changes to the language. We need to dig in and work on building the whole ecosystem. (The good news is, we are!)
