Merry Christmas #Mastodon friends! 🎅

Whether you celebrate the season or not, I wish you happiness and peace ❤️

I managed to find peace and quiet in a wintery field recently 🐾

With so much food around, please keep your pets safe this holiday season; some human foods are very toxic: sultanas, raisins, currants, onions, garlic, and many more.

Stay safe and enjoy yourselves.

Rust Nation UK - Rust Nation 25

Rust Nation UK is the first conference dedicated to the Rust programming language. It will be held at a London venue on the 19th & 20th February 2025.

Starting in about 10 minutes!

Crazy how much difference the right data structure / #algorithm for a task makes.

This week I learned about #Deterministic #Finite #Automata and #Nondeterministic Finite Automata just to redo my clunky #AdventOfCode2023 day 12 challenge, written in #Rust #RustLang

Runtime for part 1 dropped from 1-2secs to milliseconds. Part 2 also milliseconds 😮

Are there any good Rust crates for DFAs/NFAs?

Many people solved that problem with #Dynamic #Programming - something else for the learn list 😉

Linux Kernel, FreeBSD and now Microsoft is planning to phase out C# for Rust. But Why?

Having never really done much functional coding before, I feel like my #rust journey has multiple layers, beyond just syntax, borrow checker, lifetimes, etc.

I'm not saying that functional code is necessarily difficult, but with so much to learn, there is a special feeling when the first few pieces start to fall into place...

#RustLang #Functional #Newbie #NeverStopLearning

I’ve decided not to stream today. See you next weekend! In the meantime, you can follow me on https://twitch.tv/seanicuscode to get notified when I go live.

After an unexpected hiatus, my #rust programming powers have grown weak and flabby.

Currently working through one of the many #100daysofrust challenges to try and jump-start some of my corroded brain cells.

Still not sure I understand #ownership and #lifetimes though 😬 😜

Hello again #Mastodon friends!

I hope you're all keeping well ❤️

I've been away for a while because one of my favourite people in the world crossed over the rainbow bridge last year, and I've been helping the family to get through the hard times which followed. 😢

It's still going to take some time to get back to normal, so please forgive me if I don't post as often.🐕
