need tips for convincing a company in healthcare to adopt rust for their on-prem tools.
current tool is written in python 😅
not the best choice for something that should be predictable and ideally never crash
that and bundling python to exe is just... very hacky? AVs triggering and whatnot

had written some code in python using aiohttp library to do concurrent requests some time ago. setting pokemon as benchmark, took ~1s for 150 pokemon.
never figured out why the same in rust was super slow.
hooked up a proxy to identify headers and found... no gzip in rust impl 😅

after a decade i had bought my first PC few months ago.
initially ran into issues installing linux. would crash kernel and just not boot. very scary.
think i did an nvme format and then it worked.
recently it decided to not boot. good that it didn't cuz i learned what BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI is

🦀 I've improved the implementation behind all the string formatting macros in Rust: println, panic, format, write, log::info, etc. (Everything using format_args!().) They will compile a bit faster, use a bit less memory while compiling, result in smaller binaries, and produce more efficient code! 🎉

spent entire day tweaking niri and waybar to work on laptop and pc
then scrapped it to just use cosmic since it's easier and I don't want to spend too much time tinkering
there's more rust to learn
also spent hours setting up ssh agent for ssh passphrase on both machines
took me HOURS. so tired

read up a bit on rust atomicx and locks, re-watching Jon's "decrusting tokio" starts making so much more sense
or that I learned more about threads and now I get what "scheduled cooperatively" means compared to "scheduled preemptively"
awesome feeling when I'm re-watching and finally "understand"

Learning about memory ordering and atomics. It's a real head spinner with all the happens-before relationships and causality.
Plus it doesn't help that my brain starts playing assassins creed music whenever I hear or see "syncronization". Little assassins climbing up on cpu cores to syncronize.

started reading "Rust Atomics and Locks" and I love she made it free on her website
finished chap. 1 by going over it until I understood each example.
took me some time on mutex since i had lock/unlock backwards 😂
will be fun going over twamp-rs again, armed with new knowledge from this book

have to buy a laptop now
either an hp elitebook 845 g7/g8 or a thinkpad t14s gen 1/2 (all amd)
both are a bit hard to get. couldn't find t14s today but one shop said they'll have it soon.
want to go with thinky since all hp i saw weren't in very nice condition (metal body easily shows dents)

i wanted to use rust and my manager gave a realistic response that "look for rust roles"
so I'm doing just that
I'm open to new roles and looking especially for rust roles.
want to grow in it and best way is to work with it :D
if anyone has any relevant openings please pass them to me 🙏

saw this in my feed that an old 80s car had a crt touch screen. now i wanna make suzui-rs be like this.
time to go embedded and a separate screen and what not
ironic I'd make it in rust, and most of these cars would also have.. a different kind of rust

why do i get into things that make me go mad
small progress each time though. so maybe worth it
I can't solder. fine. but the cycle of updating code, flash it (disconnect esp8266 cuz I'm using hardware uart which usb also uses, then reconnect).
being a newb doesn't help. let's see where this goes

This is truly the worst time to be unemployed, especially when you won't sacrifice your ethics for a paycheck. Sifting through all these job descriptions from companies with no interest in making the world a better place is such a brutal experience.

was inspecting frontend code for the part time role.
the frontend is so heavy. build got OOM on 2GiB (not sure if normal to need 3GiB to build, feels so big)
then have to wait 45 seconds for the thing to spin up fully
shouldn't chomp so many resources 🤔 then again I'm not an expert in FE

was reading up esp-hal to see if i can use BLE instead for my project (currently use SPP with esp-idf C)
"how would it read? probably impl Read trait."
just one of the things that maybe make rust real nice to work with than C
there is some intuition backed by traits than just intuition alone (C)
