One of the medium-term possibilities we’re seriously considering forNTPsec is moving the entire codebase out of C into a language with nobuffer overrun...
Introduction Rust has gained a lot of traction recently. I was chatting with a friend about building web applications with rust, and mentioned how rocket makes it easier and enjoyable. I figured it might be a good time to pick rust up now. It does not take long to refamiliarize myself with rust and rocket, and I ended up building a tiny and dumb web application with it. My plan was to further polish it and make it a NixOS service, so that I can easily spin it up on all my NixOS powered machines.
One of the promising reasons I started learning rust is that it can be used to build modules for web using web-assembly. This blog post will cover how you can build a rust module and use it as…
Browser-based frontend to gdb (gnu debugger). Add breakpoints, view the stack, visualize data structures, and more in C, C++, Go, Rust, and Fortran. Run gdbgui from the terminal and a new tab will open in your browser.

Better suited to my needs than Python, but too far away from the developer experience I was enjoying when doing Elm in the frontend. So I gave Rust a try.
