'Compression Carcinized' is @folkertdev 's RustNL 2024 talk about implementing zlib in Rust; how compression works, how to convert a C project to Rust, maintain its performance, and foster adoption.

My #rustnl2024 talk, "Xilem: Let's Build High Performance Rust UI" is now published: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvfNipIcRiQ

I had a lot of fun in Delft, and many thanks to the conference organizers for making it possible and posting the video.

Last week we organized the RustNL 2024 Industry track! Check out the photos for some highlights of the afternoon.

Slides of the talks by Frederic Ameye and Jakub Beranek can be found here: https://2024.rustnl.org/industry/

Stay tuned for a blog post by Hugo van de Pol with more details including takeaways.

I go to #rustnl2024

I figure doing XML in Rust is rather obscure. I queue for lunch, mention it to someone, someone else just ahead of me in the queue says "oh I am working on that too!"

I also chatted to two different speakers at the conference who worked on a different XSLT engine in the past (way before Rust)

Niko Matsakis - The last spot of the day and talking about type systems and using Rust to prove a type system in Rust. I'll pretend I understand what was going on, nod my head, and trust Niko knows what he's doing.

@lulf - Yes! You can write your own bootloader for your own 30 watch, and get it running first try! Amazing work.
