“We adopted #rustlang for its security and are seeing a 1000x reduction in memory safety vulnerability density ... with Rust changes having a 4x lower rollback rate and spending 25% less time in code review, the safer path is now also the faster one.”

Mainmatter is looking for an experienced Rust developer to join one of our projects as a freelancer.

We're migrating a database from C to Rust. The project is complex and performance-sensitive. That's what makes it fun!

If you're interested, send an email to the address in the screenshot.

I'm looking to hire someone to help me build KCL! It's a programming lang for 3D design that we're making at Zoo. You'd be working closely with me on the KCL interpreter, the CAD API it calls, and our mechanical engineers. This is a Rust-heavy role. DM me any questions. zoo.dev/jobs/4619187...

Love the recent #rustlang split between serde and serde_core, so that crates like camino and iddqd can depend on serde_core and have their builds be parallelized with serde_derive. This is a long-standing issue

Released camino 1.2.0 and iddqd 0.3.13 with deps on serde_core!

If you use release-plz and trusted publishing, you don't need to use the crates-io-auth-action anymore, as that logic is implemented into release-plz itself now 👍
Advantage: your CI will request a token only when a release is needed 🥳

FYI, I got an obvious phishing attempt in my inbox from `security@rustfoundation.dev` that was masquerading as a security breach notification. It made it past gmail's spam filters.

The link goes to the `github.rustfoundation.dev` domain.
