We lowered the ticket prices for RustWeek! Individual tickets are now 199 instead of 249 euro. ✨ Additionally, we added a checkbox for an extra 100 euro discount, bringing the ticket price to just 99 euros for those who can't afford the full price. 💛

Radio button: Conference Ticket - Privately-paid tickets (also for freelancers) - €199.00

Checkbox: I can’t afford this, give me €100 discount

I was recently diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disorder called anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis. It's a "disease of chaos" that completely upturned my life for a couple months. I wrote a blog about it that goes into more detail and discusses prognosis. :-) burntsushi.net/encephalitis/

Sad that RustWeek is over, and glad I got to spend the week with so many wonderful people. Next time you are delighted by how a Rust feature works, say thanks to all these folks who spent the week hashing out every possible edge case! Can't wait for next year's RustWeek! #rustweek #rustweek2026

github.com/rust-lang/ba... I optimized the size of every Rust binary (that uses std) by over 1kb :). It's not a lot but it's something! There were some easy size optimizations around placing function boundaries to reuse code, and in the end I went all in with some unsafe to remove bounds checks :3.

Optimize proc maps parsing code size by Noratrieb · Pull Request #729 · rust-lang/backtrace-rs

The current code size is really wastefully large. Originally, it was 1500 lines of assembly in Godbolt, now I reduced it to just under 800. The effect of .text size in hello world is from 297028 to...

Only 1 person in the whole study went from identifying as trans to not identifying as trans. The 1/5 number came from youth going between the binary and non-binary spectrum. This headline and post are misleading on purpose to fit the economist's editorial bent on the political issue.

I urge companies to take funding contributors seriously, in ways that aren’t tied to projects and goals. Being a generalist in the compiler meant that often I wasn’t working towards a roadmap, but my contributions *always* paid off in the long term extensibility of the language.

Black holes swallow all information you feed into them. But information can't be destroyed, instead the information is slowly emitted as hawking radiation, impossible to reconstruct in practice but technically there. This makes them just like Atlassian Confluence

Prague, 23 November 1911
Highly esteemed Mrs. Curie,
Do not laugh at me for writing you without having anything sensible to say.
But I am so enraged by the base manner in which the public is presently daring to concern itself with you!? that I absolutely must give vent to this feeling. However, I am convinced that you consistently despise this rabble, whether it obsequiously lavishes respect on you or whether it attempts to satiate its lust for sensationalism!
I am impelled to tell you how much I have come to admire your intellect, your drive, and your honesty, and that I consider myself lucky to have made your personal acquaintance in Brussels. Anyone who does not number among these reptiles is certainly happy, now as before, that we have such personages among us as you, and Langevin(3) too, real people with whom one feels privileged to be in contact. If the rabble continues to occupy itself with you, then simply don't read that hogwash, but rather leave it to the reptile for whom i
