What is this ts-rust port thing 😂 what did I miss lol

Didn't DHH say that Rust is 1 of the ugliest language? Why is he using it now 🤔

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Even 3d printers poop too so I'm making a toilet bowl for it 😂

The things I do 😂 Spot the new toy!

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

Please ignore the messy wiring as this is my 1st time ever doing this! 😂 It was a really fun and challenging journey as I really got out of my comfort zone and learnt a lot of new things! I strongly encourage you to do something similar too! youtu.be/vLrX8BmvAt8?... #rustlang #robotics

Yes let's offload learning and growing as a person to an LLM

010

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

Fair points all around. I'm personally using it as a search assistant to help me gather information. I have a local LLM running with some tools to help do web searches and validate URLs to counter hallucinations 😂

Fellow Rustaceans, what are our thoughts regarding A.I usage? 🤔 #rustlang

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

It's really humbling to start from scratch learning electrical engineering for things like how voltage works 😂 Hope this will make me a better engineer in general

010

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

Part of why I love #rustlang is due to its tools. Setting things up with Cargo is just so straightforward and smooth compared to something like cmake with C++ 😂

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Spent 2 hours debugging a Python script only to discover that it wasn't working because I was missing a semicolon on line 69. God it's always the small things that matter 😂

New video just dropped! Today we help answer the question: Should you learn Rust in the upcoming 2027? youtu.be/0CEGhgVZ3Tc?... #rustlang #typescript #python

I have been doing things asynchronously without realizing it. I make my coffee and let it simmer for 4 minutes. During that 4 minutes I prepare the bread, apply avocado on it, And make Milo for my wife. And that's usually within 4 minutes so I can get back to the coffee then. Hot damnnnn

i'm really proud of this policy. it's not perfect, but i think it's close to the best that was possible given all the constraints. i'm excited that this will make things easier for mods and reviewers, and hopeful that it will spark change in Rust's governance. blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/...

This is a very good take on A.I generated code

I accidentally chanced upon Google's flatbuffer and went into a rabbit hole 😂 youtu.be/Q2pTzx96yXk Add this to your remind me! Scheduled to premiere in 2 days on August 3rd (8pm), 8am EST! #rustlang

Am I hear this right? Is Polonius (borrow checker 2.0) coming to Rust soon?

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

Why would you rewrite things in Rust? Just use Rust right from the start. Problem solved 😂

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

I'm using all these data to download Rust crates and node modules 😂

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

So the local 3d printing service I contracted finally delivered the chassis I designed for my robot today! Let's see how this goes 😂

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

We are better than this. The recent Rust vs Zig controversy is overblown. Let people use what they like. There's no need to post content taking swipes at either languages

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 12/07/2026

If someone asks me why I like Rust so much, it's because in addition to it's performance, - no null or undefined - compile time error checking And I'm using it for things like: - web backend - TUI/GUI apps - lambda functions - embedded development - robotics And that's why I'm bullish on it 😂

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

Surprisingly I got that reference 😂

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 04/07/2026

I recently got into the world of robotics about 9 months back but this is creepy to me 😂

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

Commitment issues? What's that? I just got a new digital caliper just to go all in on the 3D design and getting it accurate to the best of my ability 😂

000

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

Whichever is available at the 3d printing service 😂 so I'm assuming it would be PLA

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 29/06/2026

Less than 30 minutes into Onshape (1st time user) and I already got the basic shape of my chassis done. Just need to cater for a few more holes for charging the robot's battery, the power switch and maybe the other ports on the Raspberry Pi. Onshape is pretty easy to get into! #robotics

WhiteSponge @whitesponge.bsky.social · 29/06/2026

Alright so I'm currently building my own simple mobile robot to learn and I'm currently at the stage of building the chassis. Turns out just using a plastic box isn't that ideal. Looks like I'll be jumping into learning how to design a 3D CAD body and printing it lol Wish me luck folks 😂

Stupid me... Bought an OLED screen to put on the new robot I'm building but got 1 that's too small for my liking 😂 #rustlang #robotics
