I don't trust CPP neither the LLM

Over the last year, I've fallen in love with Rust.

I was a C programmer for about a decade, really loved C, then moved to Python, but always kinda missed C.

Then I discovered Rust, and well, I like it more than C.

I also think we're moving into a time where we can see code as art in many ways. Code can be beautiful, or at least, it is to me.

And while we all write code with agents now, that doesn't mean we can't write beautiful code, and work on improving our code quality.

In a world where agents write all our code, writing better code is actually even more important imo.

Soooo, I've been working on a skill that I use with my agents to write better Rust code, distilled from the Google Rust style guide, the official API Guidelines, Effective Rust, and a couple of others.

Thought I'd share it, it's called BeautifulRust 🦀 ✨

@cris_chieppa If you are interested, you can give give speech about your work here in the Embedded Rust group monthly meetup. November there is already takk on "The visor". So maybe December

@cris_chieppa Cool 👍

@AstraKernel This the board for my dcc project on esp32 and rust for digital trains . It works perfectly . Repo here : github.com/cc90202/DCC-es…

that's exactly why AI is taking developer jobs

Big fan of #Lua in #rust with the mlua crate.

It's a great fit for modern AI Program execution in #rustlang

Crazy small (400KB), env-controlled, sandboxed, and extensible.

The mlua crate is a gem

Thanks to the Lua creators and mlua maintainers!

This is the way...

I like these insects

Might be a good time to remind your employers to support my open source work 🙃

@ThomasYouderian @abx_sixty_four @mark_k Some choose to use a language they already know.

Others let AI choose the stack. AI often makes poor choices because it tends to prioritize human concerns, such as developer time and ease of implementation, rather than choosing the stack that is technically best

@mark_k If you had a language that was super easy to learn, but full of weird oddities, and people could jam out websites super fast with it, there it is, piles of it

We're starting to see some agentic Rust forks (or alternative implementations) focused on iteration speed.

More-so than the specific projects, I'm interested in the ideas being explored (and how they could evolve upstream), so wanted to collate a few here...

@magnum_d1ngus Let it

October has been an absolute nightmare for software

> Railway - customer secrets exposure
> LiteLLM - malicious PyPI + Docker releases
> Zeabur - infrastructure breached
> OpenCode - AI API keys exposed
> OVHcloud CLI - official binaries backdoored
> Rank Math PRO - malware in official plugin
> TeamUpdraft - customer data compromised
> ConnectWise - cloud backup identities compromised
> Tensorlake - npm package infected
> SubQuery - backdoored npm package
> GhostAction - GitHub repos with malicious workflows
> PHP - critical RCE vulnerabilities
> Node.js - security vulnerabilities patched
> eMudhra - certificate authority keys compromised
> Tailscale - eMudhra incident

At this point, the biggest security risk might not be the code we write, but the code we trust...

Lol 😂

@0xbfr @helyoussfii @Denche2005 Oops. I misread what you said.

Let it die

@0xbfr @helyoussfii @Denche2005 >Don’t mix your ability to prompt with ability to code.
If you have good prompt, migrate it to a better language
