Fellow Rustaceans,
Sharing a side project: Luna, an in-memory SQL "cache" server for object storage data. Main goals:
- The "Redis" for OLAP, columnar SQL data,
- Easy-to-deploy across different envs, but mostly for cloud setup,
- Distributed/cluster support
#rust

Finished porting a memberlist library we heavily use at work from Go to #rustlang. It's my first attempt at writing a non-"hello world" Rust code and I'm loving it.

I'm glad I came across this post about async/await in #rustlang. As one who complained a bit about it, having this context helps me understand it more and appreciate it.

Been contemplating about what systems language to add to our company's stack for a while. I was considering either #ziglang or #rustlang. Ended up with #rustlang.

My feed is mostly politics now; rarely tech. So I don't check it as much anymore, nor do I engage as much. Sadly, the tech landscape is still pretty active over at the birdsite.

Been following Carbon’s progress for a while now. I appreciate this kind of explanation about its goals, non-goals, and nuances.

Carbon is not a programming language (sort of)
Within C++, there is a much smaller and cleaner language struggling to get out.

New distributed systems protocol write-up!
This write-up dives into the Virtual Consensus in Delos paper and why it makes sense as the default log replication protocol in the era of object storage and hybrid environments.

Took me hours to figure out why can I not SSH to EC2 anymore. Turns out, I've accumulated too many keys in my ~/.ssh/ already that Instance-Connect complained about "Too many authentication failures."
